Lionel Messi, who had previously threatened to leave the club following a series of disagreements with Barcelona, is set to stay at Barcelona until at least June 2021. Following Messi's request to leave Barcelona, the club imposed a € 700 million fine on Messi under the terms of the contract, which was not accepted by the 33-year-old world football star and he will have to take Barcelona to court to restore his rights. "I will never take Barcelona to court because it is a club I love and I owe it because everything I have gained is from here and my life with it," Messi said in an interview with Gol. "The club is connected."
Messi stated that the reason for his previous decision to leave Barcelona was the ambition and weakness of the club's management.
