Whoever thought this was a good idea is a certifiable idiot.
They should have at least made Messi's buyout clause reasonable because hes 33 and some idiot with deep pockets would buy him.
Now you're going to let one of the most valuable players on the face of the Earth walk away for nothing and you're going to beg him to do it because you cant afford for him to stay.

A buyout clause isn't a purchase floor, it's legally required in Spain and they're set high to force a negotiation. They used to be normal amounts until PSG triggered Neymar's.
