That club is in shambles, they can barely afford to pay the players they have now.
Like I said, I'm surprised Messi chose MLS, I'm more surprised that somehow MLS managed to cobble together a more lucrative deal than the Saudis.
I dont know what financial nonsense is going on here, but it'll be interesting to see as time goes on.
Because lets be honest, Messi isnt doing this for the beaches or the Miami nightlife, he's in this for the money. How MLS somehow outbid the Saudis? I'd love to know.
But he knows he's only got a couple of kicks at this can left.
