The President of Barcelona is willing to resign in exchange for Lionel Messi's reconsideration

The President of Barcelona, Josep Maria Bartomeu, is willing to resign in exchange for Lionel Messi reconsidering his decision to leave the club, according to Catalan channel TV3.

In principle, only Bartomeu would step aside, and his board of directors would continue to lead the club.

"Josep Maria Bartomeu would abandon his position as president of Barcelona if Lionel Messi publicly commits to staying at the club," the television channel based in Catalonia states.

The bad relationship between Leo Messi and the president has been going on for a long time and was seen as one of the reasons that led the Argentinean to send the burofax to the club on Tuesday to inform them of his intention to leave. With information from EFE
