Luis Suarez has leapt to the defence of Lionel Messi after details of the Argentine’s contract demands at Barcelona were leaked.
The Argentine superstar was in talks over extending his stay at the Catalan club two years ago, prior to him attempting to walk out of the club in the same summer. He ultimately stayed put before leaving the following year to join Paris Saint-Germain on a two-year contract.
A year prior to his Camp Nou exit, Messi was in talks to put pen to paper on a new contract before unsuccessfully trying to force his exit from the club by submitting a burofax – a legal document common in Spain, after the parties fell out over the terms on offer.
