Lionel Messi is finally back to
FC Barcelona’s training ground, after his fallout with the board over his future.
The 33-year-old Argentine was seen on Monday afternoon, arriving at the Joan Gamper Ciutat Esportiva after agreeing to stay with the club.
Messi wanted to leave the club, but the club insisted that the player would need to pay the €700m release clause in his contract if another club wanted to sign him this summer.
Following a meeting between his father and the club, the playmaker reversed his decision and committed his future to Barcelona, saying he could never go to court against the Spanish giants to secure a move.
