FFP is the reason Messi is leaving Barcelona in the first place, well that coupled with the Bartomeu board's criminal handling of Barca's finances.
It's La Ligas rules.

Fair play atleast we have tried
Ronaldo couldn’t even lead Juventus to a league title last season despite Juventus winning the previous 9 titles. He joined the by far most dominating team. So pipe down. PSG aren’t even French champions when Messi joins them, although they are by far the superior French team.
Winning with the United side back then? So impressive from Ronaldo. About as impressive as Messi winning with this City side.
Messi’s legacy is set as one of the greatest of all time who WANTED to be a one club man. Now he just wants a pay check, play with his Argentine buddies and possibly win a CL.
Ian McGarry is not worth listening to. He and Castles are probably the least reliable journalists for United news.Is that guy even reliable?
It's La Liga's rule for financial fair play which have been agreed and put in place since 2011. It's the same thing AFAIK, adopted for their league.It's La Ligas rules.
How do you not feel completely silly even typing that?Imagine we signed Messi and he turns out totally unable to play in Premier League.
That doesn't include bonuses though, does it?I think he accepted wages of 30% of his current contract. The issue is even if Messi played for free, they would be in trouble.
He couldn't do it on a cold rainy night in Stoke.Imagine we signed Messi and he turns out totally unable to play in Premier League.
He is better suited for France.
Don't think Maradona would be such a good acquisition.We have a chance to sign the best player of all time that will guarantee us a prem title. I don't understand why we are not going for him. We have the money

Your right he's really struggled playing against the Premier leagues best teams
oh...the cold and rainy day against stoke...haha....Your right he's really struggled playing against the Premier leagues best teams
Well PSG apparently are offering ~675k EUR p/w NET, plus signing fee, so ..£200k p/w plus £70m signing on fee will give him equivalent wages of £880k p/w over 2 years.
Would actually make sense for most top clubs, won’t break their wage structure and sining on fee = ok transfer fee . For comparison City signed Graelish for £100m plus £200k p/w plus who knows how many million signing on fee and agent fee.

In France, The Direction Nationale du Contrôle de Gestion (DNCG) is responsible for administering, monitoring and overseeing the accounts of all professional clubs to ensure that owners are being financially prudent. Sanctions for non-compliance include transfer embargoes, reduced playing squads, demotion or even expulsion from the league. Despite lower incomes, French clubs do not carry the enormous debt of the English, Italian and Spanish leagues.So what are Ligue1 financial fair player rules
He would not struggle in the PL at all.It's the rest I think he would struggle with over 38 games.
In La Liga, most teams lay off him and let him run 4 or 5 times a game. Premier league will be more physical so he will have less room to stroll for 75 minutes like he did last season.

Apparently they've already booked the Eiffel tower on the 10th for his unveiling, they did the same thing for Zlatan and Neymar
It’s net so over a million quid a week. Plus the big signing bonus he’ll be given.40M/season surely that's just the amount in the light.

Ian Mcgarry isn't.Is that guy even reliable?
Free access to PSG's team of tax juggling lawyers40M/season surely that's just the amount in the light.
Not even remotely comparable, they changed club multiple times before that, none of them is a one club player. Messi was 2 years away from a near perfect legacy. On top of that, the amount of money they made wasn't as obscene as Messi.
It's not only the club as an institution, it's the fans, the legacy you leave behind, Messi cares more about money that he cares about being "Messi of Barcelona". He has the right to do so, but it speaks to his character, that's it. He's just like the rest of them.

I am sure Neymar will be delighted playing with Messi again. He said it himself.Looking forward to taking Neymar's shirt of him to give to Messi. I'm sure he will be delighted
No idea about the reliability but PSG for Aguero too?

I think he'd get tougher treatment playing Copa AmericaImagine we signed Messi and he turns out totally unable to play in Premier League.

If Messi wanted to stay at Barca, what stops him saying he'll play for free?
Don't say "why should he? Noone else is." ... he's earned hundreds of millions, more than anyone by far.
Already a legend, imagine what two years for free would do to his standing.. at Barca and in the perception of the football world.
To some people money means everything. This is the kind of move Juan Mata would make if he was Messi. But Messi is Messi.If Messi wanted to stay at Barca, what stops him saying he'll play for free?
