The stage of Lionel Messi like player of the FC Barcelona has finished definitively. "Apesar To have arrived to an agreement between the FC Barcelona and Leo Messi and with the clear intention of both parts to sign a new agreement in the day of today, will not be able to formalise because of economic and structural obstacles (rule of LaLiga Spanish)", had written the Barcelona club in the communiqué with which confirmed the worst nightmare for the fans culés.

Something that has remained very clear is that so much the Barça as I Read wanted to keep his union by five years more, but the financial subject and the inheritance of the past managerial board, chaired by Josep María Bartomeu, have 'forced' a divorce that anybody in the world of the football expected and that leaves to the culés very touched of face to the future by all what Messi has represented for the club, to sportive and institutional level. It leaves an empty that it will be very difficult to fill, in few words.

The true is that this Thursday 5 August was the "deadline" and have not achieved to arrive to an agreement, by what Leo Messi says goodbye officially to which has been his house from 2000, when it arrived to Barcelona with a loaded case of dreams from Rosario, Argentina, and without the idea that it went to turn into the best player of the history. The big serial of the summer (and of the year) has come to an end and still are many the doubts that subtract to the barcelonismo.

The silence sepulcral of 'The Flea' is one of the appearances that more calls the attention, without doing reference only to his 'absence' after the announcement of his exit, because it is more than evident that still is processing the situation and, according to his surroundings, is very affected. What surprises is that it kept moved away of the cameras in all the 'stages' of his negotiation with the Barça: before it decided to renew, when Laporta arrived to the team, with the different agreements that were on the table, when it won his bond with the Barcelona...

There was not any word and the silence was leading, whereas from the Barça, through Joan Laporta, kept the optimism and affirmed at all times that the "negotiations progressed properly". The Argentinian did to a side, for saving respect or simply to move away of the controversies. Now, taking much more 'weight' and results complicated to understand that in any moment tried to reassure to the fanatical barcelonistas, that lived attentive to all the movements during several months.

It is true, nevertheless, that Leo Messi does not be used to to give a lot of statements. In fact, it is necessary to trace back until finals of December of 2020, in an interview with Jordi Évole, to find his last words related to his future: "I do not have at all clear until it finish the year, go to expect to that it finish the season, if it would not be breaking what said you now, the important is to think in the team, finish well the year, think in trying achieve titles and not to distract me in other things", said in this moment... Of this have happened eight months.

Regarding his last words related to the Barça, it is necessary to trace back around the middle of May when it offered some statements to the newspaper 'Olé' and referred to the triumph of the culés in the Glass of Rey: "there is a very young changing room, with a lot of new people. This Glass of the King for the changing room was a turning point, very important. And further of this, likes me win and achieve titles. Those that more, better".

Laporta Expected a gesture

After Leo Messi left to be linked with the Barça, after winning his agreement on 30 June, Joan Laporta confessed that it expected a gesture accomplice of the Argentinian to reassure to the fans, but these words never arrived. In this moment, the president was convinced that 'The Flea' wanted to remain and that would work to the maximum to achieve a formula that allowed to inscribe it in the League, but finally the situation complicated more than the expected and the 'solution' was that the '10' left of the Camp Nou.
