What will be Lionel Messi's next step?
The Argentine forward must return to training and have his PCR test
Day 1, after Leo Messi spoke. ‘And now what?’ Barcelona fans are asking themselves after that Goal interview.
Messi will come to training, have his PCR test on Monday and get the green light to join the pre-season campaign. It started last Monday, when Leo did not turn up. After Bartomeu’s negative regarding his exit, Leo criticised the chief but he has to stay because he doesn’t want to take Barca to court.
Messi’s absences were not sanctioned by the club, but they won’t fine him because they don’t want to have a new war with the Argentine and hope his return puts an end to the matter.
Although he didn’t train with the group yet, he has been exercising at home to keep his fitness. If he is in condition to, he could play against Nastic in a friendly next Saturday. The first game of the Koeman era.
