Barcelona's announcement for Messi: confirmed departure or pressure for La Liga?

Barcelona's press release reports that there was agreement between both parties but that La Liga regulations did not allow for an agreement between Messi and the Catalan team. La Liga has just lost Neymar and Cristiano Ronaldo, two of the best players in the world. Could this be a strategy by Barcelona to pressure Javier Gomez Molina to relax the rules to retain the best player in history?
 

Barcelona's statement is a clear lobbying tool against Javier Tebas, the president of La Liga. It blames the organization for Messi's departure. The news still shakes soccer. Barcelona informed that Lionel Messi will not remain at the club. It is true that the recent past had dozens of frictions and attempts to leave the player but few players are as rooted to a team as the Argentine. Today the negotiation suffered an unexpected twist but it does not seem definitive. Messi's chances of staying at Barcelona are still latent.

La Liga salary cap that kept Lionel Messi out of Barcelona

Barcelona generates less revenue than it pays in wages. The accounting records are inflexible. La Liga could impose financial fines and even points deductions if it breaches the regulations. La Liga and the Blaugrana institution held meetings to find exceptions to the rule, so that Barcelona could retain Lionel Messi. But without success.

There are those who say that there is a chapter left in this story...

There are those who believe that not everything is closed. That this is a maneuver by Joan Laporta to give himself one more chance. So that La Liga reconsiders its strict position and gives Barcelona a safe passage with the salary cap imposed by the Fair Play.
