Barcelona forward Lionel Messi’s lawyers will reportedly respond to La Liga, who backed Barcelona claiming the €700m release clause is still valid.

Messi has handed in a transfer request this summer and believes he is now an ex-Barcelona player, as there’s a clause in contract allowing him to leave for free one year before it expires.

The Blaugrana, who insist the contract is still valid and includes a €700m release clause, have received support from La Liga.
