Lionel Messi has launched yet another rant over his situation at Barcelona and said: “I’m tired of always being the problem for everything at the club.”
Messi returned to Spain this week after starring for Argentina during the international break, where he helped them secure a much-needed 2-0 win over Peru.
But on his arrival in Barcelona, Messi was reportedly quizzed on the ongoing situation at the club and comments made by Eric Olhats, the former agent of Antoine Griezmann.
And a frustrated Messi made his feelings known to the assembled media at the airport, with El Mundo Deportivo claiming he said: “I’m tired of always being the problem for everything at the club.”
The comments come after Griezmann’s former agent suggested that Barcelona training sessions are “designed to make certain people happy” in what appeared to be a sly dig at Messi.
Rumours continue to circulate that Griezmann and Messi do not see eye-to-eye, with the Frenchman still struggling to find his best form at the Nou Camp.
Olhats added fuel to the fire earlier this week when he told France Football: “Antoine arrived at a club in which Messi had his eye on everything.
“[Messi] is both emperor and monarch, and didn’t genuinely welcome Antoine upon his arrival. His attitude has always been deplorable and made him feel bad.”
