Lionel Messi would be ready to divide his salary by three to return to Barça. This Thursday, Javier Tebas, the president of the Spanish football league, spoke about it at a press conference. “If he wants to come back, he will have to earn less than what he earns at PSG. Because at PSG, the results say that their payroll is 800 million. A club that earns 700 million or less has a total wage bill of 800 million. This is what he earns, in addition to what he earns from other sources or elsewhere”.
Tebas then wanted to demonstrate all the attractiveness of Spanish football compared to other championships. “People say Spanish football is weaker because we don’t have the buying power of the Premier League. It’s wrong. I repeat, we have the best players in Europe, they have won the biggest prizes and they play in Spain. It’s complicated and despite the difficulties of the market, they stayed in Spain. And now I read that the best player in the history of football wants to play in Spain again, even earning less money”.
