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.

I could be wrong about this, but the buyout clause only means that if someone hits that number they have to allow them to negotiate with him. I believe clubs can bid less than that and Barcelona has the option to accept it still.
