Ex-Barca President Reveals €400M Offer for Messi from Arab Country

Former Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu revealed that funds from an Arab country were transferred to Europe in a bid to sign Lionel Messi for €400 million.

Bartomeu stated that a club was prepared to trigger the release clause, though he declined to name the team, clarifying it was not Manchester City.

To prevent the transfer, Barcelona acted swiftly, raising Messi's release clause from €400 million to €700 million to secure his future, alongside increasing his salary. sweetbonanza-app.com
