On Wednesday, Daily Sport revealed that Barca had made an official offer to Messi with an annual salary of 25 million euros. At the same time, Barca have asked La Liga to provide a document that guarantees that players such as Messi and Gundogan can be registered.
Laporta has been working hard for Messi's return, but it was previously revealed by the media that Barca have not officially offered Messi so far. However, Messi's father, Jorge Messi, has publicly stated that Messi will not think about his future until June 3.
Daily Sport revealed that Barca had made an offer to Messi a long time ago, with an annual salary of up to 25 million euros, and they believed that Messi would accept the offer. Although Messi is 36 years old, his return to Barca as a free agent is highly anticipated.
However, there is one more precondition that Barca can convince Messi to return. On May 19, Barça will meet with La Liga to discuss the registration of players for next season. Once agreed by La Liga, Barca will first register players such as Garvey, Araujo, Alonso and Sergi Roberto.
At the same time, Barca also hopes that La Liga can provide a document confirming that it can register for the summer window. Daily Sport pointed out that "the most important role of this document is to give it to Messi, so that he can trust the Barca hierarchy more and feel more secure, believing that he will not be unable to sign with the club as he did two seasons ago." ”
Barca hope that negotiations between the two sides will really begin after handing this document to Messi, which is a guarantee for Messi. "Messi will have to wait for early June to decide on his future, and Barca should have this document by the end of this week," the newspaper analyzed. ”
