Laporta saying that so he can spin the "we did everything we could" narrative and blame Tebas or Messi when he inevitably DOESN'T do everything because he's just a piece of shit like that and people will eat it up anyway 😁 you know, I don't want Messi to go back. I want forcing him out like this and being the president who lost him and lied to him to forever be a blight on Laporta. I don't want his image rehabilitated.

tearss first lemme just say this is unreal levels of hating and i admire your dedication fkdjfk

second:

(ignore the source— brunati's the one who posted this, not sport)

looks like they're getting the league's approval + tebas also seems keen on having him back so i think this time it's actually serious. however, you are 100% allowed to drop a "i told you so" in my askbox if laporta chooses to stab messi in the back again lmao (said while coughing blood)

#i get the feeling he'll genuinely try /his/ best to get messi back this time around not just for sporting reasons but also: money #barça aside the league too need the revenue messi generates bc oh lordy are they in the trenches #the thing abt laporta's reputation is still pretty conflicting tbh #laporta (and cruyff) already saved barça from certain doom once by appointing pep as coach #dude's a politician and he knows if he can get messi back he'll be known as the guy who not only saved barça from financial ruin #by making the hard choice of letting messi go (...)#but also brought him back to give the club legend his deserved last dance after wc glory etc etc #i'm rambling but what i'm trying to say is i think he's too shrewd to let what you want to happen #(as koeman said- being known as the guy who let messi go)#well. /happen/#also you can hate laporta fairs i get the sentiment #but at the expense of messi not returning when he's clearly feeling homesick? is kind of unfair to him imo #in general i think messi hanging up his boots without a return to barça would be an extremely unsatisfying way to end things #you know. storytelling wise #asks
