Is Lionel Messi going to play for Chelsea?
- 8 years ago
Jorge Messi, the father and representative Lionel Messi, has held negotiations with Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich concerning the Barcelona No. 10's potential departure from the Camp Nou, officials said.
With Messi being handed a 21-month jail sentence, that he's unlikely to serve any time, and a €2 million fine for tax fraud, it has been reported that the Argentine has felt that Barcelona haven't been as supportive as they could've been throughout the ordeal.
The West London club reportedly have kept a close eye on developments in the case and were alerted to the possibility of Messi's departure.
