Messi: How Koeman’s ‘Your Privileges In Barcelona Are Over’ Chat Pushed The Star Out
Lionel Messi decided to hand in a transfer request at Barcelona, after the new manager Ronald Koeman told him “your privileges in the squad are over”.
Koeman replaced Quique Setien as manager, following a humiliating 8-2 defeat to Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
The Dutchman quickly arranged a meeting with Messi, to discuss his plans for the team moving forward.
During the chat, Messi told Koeman that he saw himself “more out of the club than in it”.
