Ex-Barca president of Barcelona has been open to the recent developments surrounding Messi, before the news of Messi’s burofax to leave the club, he told that [the club wants to sell Messi](https://technosports.co.in/2020/08/26/ex-barca-president-suspects-that-the-club-wants-to-sell-messi-deliberately/).

It seems true enough as the greatest player on the planet wants to leave the club where he has spent decades playing with a Barca shirt.

This is the first time ever, the situation has worsened this much as Messi is on the verge of leaving his only football club where he is deemed as the God of football. In the meantime, another club legend, [Carlés Puyol has bid farewell to Messi](https://technosports.co.in/2020/08/26/puyol-bids-farewell-to-messi-saurez-appreciates-to-it/) already.

After all this, Joan Laporta came out to speak on Twitter regarding this whole incident:

> Bartomeu i la seva Junta han de dimitir immediatament.  
>   
> Han anat minant la moral de [#Messi](https://twitter.com/hashtag/Messi?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) per salvar-se ells del desgavell econòmic i esportiu que han creat.   
>   
> Si dimitissin encara hi hauria esperança que Messi es quedés al [#Barça](https://twitter.com/hashtag/Bar%C3%A7a?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw)
>
> — Joan Laporta Estruch🎗 (@JoanLaportaFCB) [August 25, 2020](https://twitter.com/JoanLaportaFCB/status/1298353449571057667?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw)

He writes: *“Bartomeu and his Board must resign immediately.*

*They have been undermining the morale of [#Messi](https://mobile.twitter.com/hashtag/Messi?src=hashtag_click) to save themselves from the economic and sporting turmoil they have created.*

*If they resigned there would still hope that Messi would stay at [#Barça](https://mobile.twitter.com/hashtag/Bar%C3%A7a?src=hashtag_click)“*

Already fans have started raging against Bartomeu and the streets of Barcelona are heating up with Messi’s situation at the club. We hope that he somehow changes his mind and fulfill his wish to retire wearing a Barca shirt.
