​'Messi will renew & summer return for Neymar possible' – Bartomeu battling Rousaud on Barca's transfer plans

Former Barcelona vice-president Emili Rousaud has said he believes Lionel Messi will soon sign a contract renewal, and that Neymar could return to the club in the summer.

Rousaud recently departed Barca in controversial fashion, resigning his position and saying he is ready to go to legal war with Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu.

Among his allegations, Rousaud has said “corruption is evident” within Camp Nou and that someone “had their hands” in the club's treasury.
