Laliga-Chef Javier Tebas: Messi

Laliga boss Javier Tebas has explained in an interview with the Catalan newspaper Sport that the farewell of Lionel Messi could have been prevented from FC Barcelona and the finish was not financial nature.

Yes! Tebas answered the question of whether Messi could still play at Barca. I discussed the topic with Laporta and his board. Solutions were sought. Unless the problem was a financial?

If it was because of another reason, I can not judge that, Tebas continued. I think next year - if Barca announces its financial figures - we will see if Messi could actually have stayed or not.

In the end, this was from Messi at the Bluegranana but according to Tebas no financially conditioned decision. I know that certainly. Without becoming concrete, TEBAs indicated a possible reason of his statements: Barca's rejection of a billions-deals of the Spanish professional clubs with the Luxembourg risk corporation 'CVC'.

Tebas mad at barca because of burdened billions deal?

Laporta was longer than a month for it. That's why he said, the things (the Messi extension; d. Red.) Would run well, Tebas revealed. He even called me twice to accelerate the deal because Messi began to become nervous.

The decision to leave the deal in the last 72 hours was not very associated with the environment of the Super League and the strategy that Real Madrid drives, says Tebas.

Thus, therefore, the influence of archrivale Real Madrid could therefore prevent the deal and the associated Messi resume. I feel that there is a psychological kidnapping by Florentino Perez and the Madridismo at Barca. Something like a inferiority complex, says Tebas.
