Rousaud: "We will ask Messi for a salary sacrifice"

Emili Rousaud, precandidato to the elections of the Barça, spoke this Saturday on one of the big problems that goes to have to solve the next president of the FC Barcelona​, the future of Leo Messi. The Argentinian finishes agreement in 2021 and has not renewed still, by what could sign with any team free from 1 January. This is something tremendously worrisome that will have to face up the precandidato that win the comicios.

The ex Barcelona vice-president wait be the winner and thus it already is thinking what will do if it has to speak with Messi to convince him that it renew. The Catalan left clear in an interview for the newspaper 'PLOUGH', that his intention is that the rosarino follow, but that neither much less goes to sacrifice the economy of the club for this. According to his words, if the '10' does not accept to go down the wage, will not be still in the Barça.

"We will have to seat us with Messi and ask him a sacrifice salarial. Right now, with the conditions of reward that has, is not sustainable. We will ask this sacrifice. And if finally there is not agreement, Messi will not be", affirmed, without biting the tongue. The ex barcelonista has very clear his posture and seems that his idea is to offer him to the captain culé an enlargement to the drop, something that probably will not seat him at all well.

"Messi has written the most brilliant pages of the history of the club, and have to honour to our legends. But the reality is the one who is", apostilló the precandidato. Besides, it left clear that the albiceleste is not above the club and that does not go to deceive to the partners with good words to win votes. The employer prefers to be the clearest possible and put by on "by in front the interests of the club"

"Sincerely, I think that the things it is necessary to say them as they are. To the partner no can him deceive. We will do the maximum efforts so that Messi remain , but always with the interests of the club by in front", said, insisting in the idea that it wants to that it continue, "but no to any price". "It is not above the club. I want to that it remain ? Yes. But no to any price. It has to be sustainable salarialmente", stood out.

Convince to Messi from the sportive project

Finally, it affirmed that the forward will prioritise the sportive project to the money, reason whereby looks forward to to convince him to go down the wage and continue. "I read it does not put the money by in front. Already it is the better footballer paid. When in summer says that it goes , that anybody deceive , does not say it by money, but because it is a born winner and there is not a team the quite competitive. Therefore, have to convince him that we go to create a winning project. And from here, he will take the decision that creates convenient", finalised.
