Former Barcelona vice-president: Messi and his family are extremely angry with Laporta, and it is worth doing anything for Messi

Jordi Meester, the former vice president of Barcelona Sports, recently accepted an interview with a podcast program and talked about the relationship between Barcelona and Messi.

Jodi Meester was in charge of Barcelona’s youth training, B team and women’s football affairs from 2010 to 2014, and served as the club’s vice president from 2015 to 2019. He was blunt about the relationship between Messi and the current Barcelona management: "Through third-party sources, I am sure that Messi and his family are extremely angry with Laporta. The previous so-called 'it can be solved through a barbecue' is self-evident."

Mestre's words refer to the fact that after Messi joined Paris, Laporta tried to repair the relationship with him but failed.

Mestre emphasized Messi's legacy and called on the club to give him historical courtesy: "I think no matter what you do for Messi, it is never too much. His contribution to the club is shocking. From an economic perspective, the benefits of playing with Messi and without Messi are very different.

"He does receive a high salary, but the value he creates far exceeds what he earns. There are world-class stars willing to join precisely because of Messi. I hope to create a historic memorial for him and let his name be passed down for generations, such as naming the ‘Messi Stand’ or something like that. "
