Lionel Messi tells Barcelona he wants out - report

Lionel Messi has reportedly told Barcelona he wants to leave now following the club’s latest Champions League humiliation.

According to Marcelo Bechler, the captain has really had enough after losing 8-2 to Bayern Munich in the Champions League and wants out.

Messi is frustrated with the way the club is run, Barca’s poor planning, and a source reckons they’ve never seen the captain this way before and ready to quit.

There was a rumor earlier this season that Messi was fed up and thinking of leaving when his contract expires, but it seems the Bayern thrashing has convinced him enough is enough.
