The six-time Golden Ball winners of Nou Camp, signed in 2017 and said to be the largest in the sports world ever discovered by El Mundo over the weekend.
The report claims that Messi wins a maximum of 555,267,619m euros over the four seasons if a series of conditions are met.
The 33-year-old is said to have already won around 555m (not including taxes) from the contract, which includes a 69m-euro loyalty bonus on a gross salary guaranteed 122m euros.
But further details have appeared, saying that Messy would be required to “share in Catalan society and culture” and “to adopt an appropriate personal behavior and pace of life” and never participate in doping, as part of the agreement.
And the best thing was that contact contains a scenario that would allow Mess to leave as a free player.
Without looking at the situation last summer, when he felt he was able to use the escape clause in his agreement, that condition was that Messy would have the right to leave for no cent if Catalonia gained independence.
Catalonia was struggling for independence from Spain in 2017, but it was not yet realized. If it had happened, Barcelona would have been excluded from La League and given the Messys a special vacation.
Moreover, Messi won an additional 695,748 euros after receiving the award as best player from FIFA, while he would receive another four million euros if Barcelona wins the Champions League again.
Two million euros is the payment it takes to play over 60 percent of the Barca matches, which are realised at the end of the edition.
Messy is determined to take legal action against El Mundos for publishing contract details with the title, “Messs has destroyed Barcelona”.
In addition, coach Ronald Coeman has said that every barca employee involved in the flow of the deal must be dismissed.
Whoever published this had bad intentions and wanted to cause damage to Barcelona”, the Dutch said.
But we need to be united and concentrated, we need to forget everything that's published”.
We can't aspire to gain much. We've known for a very long time that he's the best player in the world, he's done so much for this club and it's crucial. We should respect everything that Messie has done”, he added further.
