Television pundit, Simon Jordan, has accused Lionel Messi of shedding ‘crocodile’ tears as he bid an emotional farewell to Barcelona Football Club on Sunday, August 8.<\/p>\n

WITHIN NIGERIA had reported that Messi broke down in tears during his farewell press conference<\/a>, as he waved goodbye to the club he joined when he was just 13 years old.<\/p>\n

The Argentine captain ended his 21-year association with Barcelona after it was revealed they were unable to afford giving him a new contract.<\/p>\n

Reacting to the Messi’s emotional scenes at the Nou Camp on Sunday, the outspoken talkSPORT pundit said:<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought it was a pretty snappy press conference. Particularly because of the crocodile tears.\u201d<\/p>\n

Messi will receive \u00a325million a year at PSG if the deal goes through.<\/p>\n

According to Jordan, Messi’s exit<\/a> is motivated by money and he does not feel sorry for a footballer who is only moving on to pocket another \u2018humongous bag of money\u2019.<\/p>\n

Jordan continued: \u201cMessi could have signed a contract at Barcelona last year if he wanted to. Nothing\u2019s changed at Barcelona, if anything it\u2019s got worse.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know he wanted to have his power battle with the incumbent president [Josep Maria Bartomeu]. For Messi to be on television crying about this, talking about the challenges that face him with his humongous bag of money is for me beyond the pale.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe could\u2019ve done a deal last year but he didn\u2019t want to, he wanted to play hide and seek with himself. He wanted to play power games with Barcelona<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cBarcelona have paid him more money than anyone else would have paid him.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe may love being in Catalonia, he may have been there since he was 13 years of age but what\u2019s helped that has also been the inordinate, extreme and obscene amounts of money they\u2019ve been able to pay him.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo when I sit there and watch this situation, I don\u2019t feel any empathy for him. I don\u2019t sit there and think it\u2019s terrible for him to be travelling off to PSG<\/a> where he gets paid an inordinate amount of money.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was responsible in part for why the situation has manifested itself. Messi would have known about the challenges that Barcelona had.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
