Chelsea target Lionel Messi delivers
transfer ultimatum to Barcelona
LIONEL MESSI has told Barcelona: It's me or Luis
Enrique.
Barcelona are a club in crisis after the Court of
Arbitration for Sport upheld their 12-month transfer
ban by FIFA.
Messi has reportedly fallen out of favour with Barca
boss Enrique, who is under pressure after
overseeing a 1-0 defeat to Real Sociedad on
Sunday.
And according to Spanish sports paper AS, Messi
has told the La Liga giants to chose between him
or the manager.

Messi is unhappy with Enrique's managerial style
and has reportedly now given an ultimatum to the
club's board.
The Argentina ace, Neymar, Dani Alves and Gerard
Pique were on the bench for the loss against David
Moyes' men.
That angered Messi but the 27-year-old's
unhappiness has been building for some time.
He is thought to have nearly come to blows with
Enrique on Friday and skipped training on Monday
with apparent illness.

The same day he sparked speculation over a move
to Chelsea by following the club's official account
on Instagram.
Xavi, Andres Iniesta and Sergio Busquets have
tried to ease the situation by holding talks with
Messi.
However, sources in Spain are adamant that any
power struggle between Messi and Enrique would
result in one winner - the four-time world player of
the year.
