Barcelona chiefs labored so hard before the start of the ongoing season in Europe for them to convinced Lionel Messi to stay after the Argentine submitted a transfer request.
The rationale that made Lionel Messi to hand a request was as a result of their embarrassing defeat against Bayern Munich in the Champions League.

Coach Setien was then fired by Barcelona chiefs because of the defeat and Ronald Koeman was appointed as a replacement.
Messi was linked with a move to Premier League side Manchester City during the summer, and according to the report on UK Sun, the Citizens have received a boost going by what the Argentine recently said.
”I am tired of always being the problem.”
Barcelona are currently occupying eight position on the Spanish La Liga table with 11 points after seven games played so far.
Lionel Messi has been playing for Barcelona first team since 2004 and the Argentine has so far scored 447 goals in 492 games.
