Lionel Messi has reportedly given FC Barcelona a deadline to confirm that they will be able to bring him back to the Camp Nou: 10 days.
This does not necessarily mean that he would be putting pen to paper in 10 days, but it does suggest he wants Barcelona to move much more quickly in confirming that his return will be viable under Financial Fair Play rules.
Barcelona have submitted a so-called “viability plan” to La Liga to map out their moves for the upcoming season. La Liga wanted the club to lower expenditures by 200 million, and with the exits of Sergio Busquets, Gerard Piqué, and Jordi Alba, it is said they have saved 100 million already.
