Barcelona Reveals Release Clause For Lionel Messi

La Liga giant, Barcelona has revealed that it will demand the sum of £631million release clause if any club hands in a transfer request for Lionel Messi.

Messi future with the Spanish side remains uncertain after the team performed woefully last season and finished trophyless.

The six-time Ballon d’Or winner has been linked with Manchester City, Inter Milan and Paris Saint-Germain.

There are reports that some Barcelona board want Messi to leave the club. It is understood that at least one high-ranking member thinks a shock sale would be best for all involved.

However, Barca will inform Messi that he can only leave if a club is willing to pay his stunning £631m release clause or he will be staying put.

The world-record transfer fee remains the £198m PSG paid for Messi’s former teammate in 2017.
