A £205million offer turned down.... £460,000 per week wage offer turned down.... £24million per year wage offer turned down.... ...and Messi turned it down... ...it makes you think... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...Messi-turns-460-000-week-leave-Barcelona.html
Perhaps Anzhi Makhachkala may now put a bid in for Dave Clarkson, as he is the Messi for the 'Barca' of the 4th.
Messi already has enough cash for his whole family for the rest of their natural lives. Why would he need any more ? What is it with this 'natural lives' thing anyway ? Can somebody have an 'un-natural life' ? Why am I even asking ?
Why would you ever leave somewhere were you are regarded as a God...? Barca has been pretty much his whole life and are completely responsible for his career when they agreed to pay for the growth hormone he was lacking in return for signing and he publicly acknowledges a great debt to Rijkaard who had faith in him and gave him his first team debut. His current huge salary is simply a product of his talent and from what you hear about him, I think he would be equally happy playing in a park for nothing. He remains a humble lad who remembers his roots and I doubt that he is bothered about the money plus of course, why would you want to fly 1,500km every time you play a home game....?!!!
