Former Barcelona presidential candidate Victor Font is adamant Lionel Messi would still be with the the club if he had won the election.
Font eventually lost the count of Joan Laporta earlier this year.
On Messi’s departure for PSG, he told AS: “I am convinced that his departure could have been prevented. What was clear is that a barbecue was not enough. We were going to cut about a hundred million from the wage bill.
“If Messi wanted to stay and the club wants him to stay, surely there is a margin.
“We were going to make him a life contract. And that was going to give us a lot of leeway.”
