\"Messi\"<\/p>\n

Lionel Messi has directed the blame for his Barcelona departure at LaLiga.<\/p>\n

The 34-year-old made the accusation during his farewell press conference on Sunday.<\/p>\n

According to him, he was all set to sign a contract extension to stay at the Camp Nou.<\/p>\n

But when he returned from his holidays, Barca president Joan Laporta informed him a deal was no longer possible because of the league\u2019s restrictions.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere was no problem with Barcelona, really. I was okay with the club on every detail.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had an agreement on everything, I was convinced to stay at Bar\u00e7a. But it was not possible because of Liga rules,\u201d Messi said.<\/p>\n

Messi is widely expected to sign for Paris Saint-Germain in the coming days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
