Barcelona president Joan Laporta admits he’s keen to see Lionel Messi and new signing Memphis Depay exchange opinions on their tattoos!
At Memphis’ presentation, Laporta was pushed about the progress of new contract talks with Messi.
“We want Messi to continue and for his dream of continuing to come true and, thus, he can continue at Barça for many more years … I hope Messi and Memphis can see their tattoos as soon as possible,” smiled Laporta.
Asked about what is missing to announce the final agreement, Laporta did not want to go into details: “At the time you will know it. You will know what we are working on, but I cannot comment on details.”
Laporta insisted that “the negotiations are progressing adequately and we are all satisfied with the attitude of each party. We are putting the cards on the table so that the parties are satisfied and I hope that the negotiation continues to progress as it has been up to now.”
Finally, the president added that “Messi is on vacation, deserved after winning the Copa América in Brazil, but both his team and that of Barça continue to work to get the best contract for both parties.”
