Joan Laporta knows how to stick his finger in the sore spot. He is aware that around Messi some uncertainty about his future is being generated by an alleged discomfort with Bartomeu's way of doing things and the former president struck this Wednesday in an act at the Sant Joan de Deu hospital. For Laporta, Messi already “is a cause for concern.” “When I say that we are going to be vigilant (to the current directive) this is one of the issues that I am referring to. Messi is a player with a long way to go, he is the best player in history and the right conditions must be created for him to continue. The current directive is not knowing how to face certain issues“
Laporta, who did not clarify if he will be a candidate for the presidency (he will not do it until December probably), sent another message to Bartomeu, who last Sunday had indicated in the Onze program on TV3 that he will leave the club better than he received it in 2010. Laporta shot with a bullet: “In 2010, Barça was the world reference. He still has time, a year, and I hope he can do it. But I doubt it“
