Lionel Messi is ready to go public with his frustrations at Barcelona.
Sport says the Barça captain is ready to break his silence on the subject but will wait for the right time and moment to explain the reasons behind the desire to move.
Until now Leo has remained silent on both his decision to leave as well as responses to comments from Ronald Koeman. (manager), Ramon Planes (director of football) and Josep Maria Bartomeu (president) on his future. Bartomeu himself has only spoken to Jorge Messi, Leo’s father and agent, about the current situation.
Messi knows he must explain his decision to the world – and in particular the fans of the club he’s been at since he turned 13 – but wants to wait for the right time to reveal his motives. He will only have one opportunity to get his thoughts and reasons across properly.
