According to the Times, Barcelona captain Lionel Messi is likely to stay at the club for the foreseeable future after president Josep Maria Bartomeu resigned from his post. The Argentine has been reportedly unhappy with the way Bartomeu has run the club and was thus looking to leave this summer.

In light of criticism over his handling of Donny van de Beek, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has revealed that the Dutch star is key to his plans at Manchester United. The former Ajax starlet has struggled to get game-time this season, with Bruno Fernandes and Paul Pogba ahead of him in the pecking order.

Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu has revealed that he stopped Lionel Messi from leaving the club for a rival and that he was willing to accept the consequences of doing that. The Argentine was looking to leave this summer but he opted to see out the final year of his contract instead.

In light of Donny van de Beek’s struggles for playing time, Dutch legend Marco van Basten has admitted that the midfielder made a mistake by signing for Manchester United. The former Ajax starlet made the switch to Old Trafford this summer but has yet to start a Premier League game for his new side.
