There's no way on earth CVC would've put the money in if there was a danger of Messi not playing in La Liga.
The atheltic also reported that other clubs where willing to pay Barca or some crap like that to help keep Messi as he’s the image of the league.
Wouldn’t surprise me if he stays as well and they adapt the rules to allow him to get £100m per year
