Today it will be a crucial day for the future of Leo Messi. The Argentinian super-star deserted the pre-season medical and the first training session of the new season with Barcelona, and today his father will meet with the Blaugrana's board to discuss the situation regarding his transfer.
Jorge Messi landed earlier this morning in Barcelona, declining to comment the situation with the journalist waiting for him at the airport Barcelona-El Prat.
The club, backed by La Liga, will reiterate their position on the matter: the payment of the €700 million release clause is the only way for Messi to leave Barcelona. On the flipside, Messi believes that it is still in his rights to exercises the clause in his contract that allows him to terminate his deal with the Catalan club at the end of every season, while the club is adamant that the clause expired on 10 June.
