Suarez is backing his best mate
Luis Suarez has expressed support for Lionel Messi on Twitter, following the news that Barcelona’s star man wants to leave the club in this transfer window.
Messi informed the club today of his desire to leave, citing a clause in his contract that would allow him to unilaterally terminate his contract at the club.
Barcelona are expected to challenge this, claiming he the clause expired on June 10th. There will be a meeting held in the coming days when Messi and his representatives will argue it all out with the board.
The first Barcelona legend to show support for Messi was Carles Puyol , who tweeted “Respect and admiration, Leo. All my support, mate.”
Luis Suarez has now shown his public support for Messi, replying to Puyol’s tweet with two clapping emojis.

Suarez and Messi have won many trophies together at Barcelona and are best friends off the field, so it should come as no surprise to see the Uruguayan take Messi’s side in this stand off. Especially as the club are trying to force him out the door as well, with Ronald Koeman saying the striker is not in his plans.
Just when you thought the crisis at the Camp Nou couldn’t get worse after the 8-2 loss to Barcelona, their front two turn against the club. And when they shoot, they normally don’t miss.
