Newly appointed "Barcelona" coach Ronald Koeman immediately faced a very important task - to try to convince superstar Lionel Messi to stay within the club's ranks. In a meeting organized by the Dutchman, he tried to maneuver out of the situation, but one phrase ultimately angered the Argentine, who immediately demanded that the Catalan team's leaders allow him to leave. "Your privileges in the club have ended, now you will have to do everything for the good of the team. Of course, I will try to be flexible, but now you will have to think only about 'Barcelona's' interests," - the specialist's words are quoted by "Deportes Cuatro". Furious, L. Messi also lamented the treatment of his friend Luis Suarez by the coach, who is already driving him out of the club in words to the press. According to the media, former "Barcelona" president Joan Gaspart is now urging to use all legal measures, insisting that the striker's departure for "less than 700 million euros would be a worse thing than losing 2:8 to 'Bayern'.".
