It is one of the arguments with which the Dutch first division club FC Volendam hopes to persuade star footballer Lionel Messi to come to their club. And they’re not the only ones trying.
What they said
“We have great fish!”
Lionel Messi has never played outside of Barcelona since he was young and this could afford him the opportunity to explore other clubs before he retires.
Apart from Volendam, Brazilian club Ibis will also try their luck with a move for the attacker despite the 'worst football club in the world' tag placed on them. This was because they failed to win a single match four years in a row.
Sources claim their contract for Messi stipulates that the winger must not score too many and certainly not make them a champion. Because of course, they shouldn’t get too good.
Meanwhile, Barcelona's director insists that Messi will continue to play football there. He says it won’t be long before Messi signs a new contract.
Lionel Messi becomes clubless

For the first time in his professional career, Messi became a free agent on July 1 following the expiration of his contract.
Earlier, La Liga president Javier Tebas warned that Barcelona must reduce their wage pack to be able to accommodate Messi for the forthcoming season.
