Ehe world of football is enduring as best it can the economic crisis that is hitting all clubs due to the pandemic. Winter market closed, however a hotter summer is expected, not only because the covid is expected to give a truce to football as well, but because there is a movement above the others that can unleash a perfect storm of transfers.
Actually, Most football players are waiting for what Messi decides. If the Argentine, who postponed his decision to June in his last interview, decides to leave Barcelona, this move can produce a cascade effect. And the truth is that every time he seems closer to ending his Barça cycle. The exclusive of El Mundo About his contract, the best in the world of sports, he has moved the football planet, especially to Messi himself, very upset with the fact that the millionaire figures have come to light in the different clauses of its 2017 renewal agreement. An announcement that may have been the last push for Leo to get rid of doubts about his future.

And if Messi decides to leave? Everything indicates that either PSG or City will be their destinations. The Qatar club, through Leonardo,has been positioned more clearly. But for Paris to square the numbers with Messi is not easy, to such an extent that the French champion will be forced to sell to Mbapp, whose renewal is still in the air and now it makes more sense. PSG knows that this summer they have two options: to renew the forward, with a one-year contract, or to sell him now. If Leo’s door is opened, they will leave doubts.
The next affected will be Madrid, who do not want to renounce the French star as happened when he played for Monaco. That Messi ends up at PSG suits the whites. Apart from ending the Argentine cycle in Spain, where it has been the great nightmare, it would be easier to negotiate with Nasser al Khelaifi,forced to reduce the workforce in salaries. In Paris it is unfeasible, for the Financial Fair Play, hold the chips Neymar, that going to renew and improve his current contract some more, close to 37 million net, Messi, the best paid in the world although it will be impossible for him to sign a contract with as many clauses as he was granted Bartoemeu, and then Mbapp would ask for its pending renewal to continue. And that now charges about 22 million gross per year.
The Messi effect will splash Madrid to the extent that in order to bring Mbapp, it must sell one of its main assets to finance the operation. Vincius, that until recently seemed untouchable, lives his worst moment in white and the idea of looking for minutes away from the Bernabu, especially if Zidane continues grows stronger and stronger.

If Madrid is unable to cope with Mbapp’s operation, there is no doubt that the LiverpooHe is clear that I do. Klopp loves him, but his arrival will involve the departure of a piece of his trident and in Canal Plus Francia They assured that the German would be willing to sell Salah, who is not closed to a transfer, to face the signing of Kylian.
But what if it is City who in the end gets Messi? Barcelona would have more reasons to sign Agero, a player who will come at zero cost if he does not renew his contract. So far it has not. In the City, also, aware of what it costs to have Messi, they will prepare a long-term project that will go beyond playing in England. Making the leap to MLS at the hands of New York City is another of the arguments that Eithad and Abu Dhabi have for the Barcelona forward, increasingly convinced of ending his career away from the Camp Nou.
