Lionel Messi: Could Barca wage cut impact star’s future?
With La Liga suspended indefinitely, so too the battle to be elected Barcelona’s figurehead has ground to a halt, with the next presidential election set for June 2021. Messi had hoped for an outcome before committing to a new deal, but amid reports that he has vowed to quit if Josep Maria Bartomeu is allowed to stay on for another term, the club’s attempted strategy to enforce a hefty wage cut casts further doubt over his future. Messi is the captain and Bartomeu knows this move will likely lead to his departure in 15 months’ time, but his final objective is to tie the club’s talisman down to a ‘contract for life’. Messi responded to comments Abidal made to a Spanish newspaper this year Read Also: Djokovic donates €1m to help Serbia combat coronavirus Earlier this season, sporting director Eric Abidal became embroiled in a public dispute with the Argentine when he called out several unnamed players for not having the right attitude under former manager Ernesto Valverde. Messi replied on social media: “Those responsible for the area of sports management must assume their responsibilities and above all take charge of the decisions they make. “I think that when talking about players, we should give names because otherwise, we are getting everyone dirty and feeding things that are said and are not true,” he added. FacebookTwitterWhatsAppEmail分享 Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu agreed Messi’s last contract in 2017 Lionel Messi set to be hit with wage cut as part of Barcelona’s response to coronavirus crisis as Spain remains in a “state of alarm”, activated by the prime minister Pedro Sanchez a fortnight ago. This is a country that is struggling to cope with a mounting coronavirus crisis as its death toll exceeded China’s this week with 769 lives lost on Friday – Spain’s largest single-day surge – bringing the total number of fatalities to 4,858 from 64,000 cases. Lionel Messi has scored has 24 goals in 31 games for Barcelona this season With the pandemic at the forefront of people’s minds, the country’s second-richest football club is not immune from feeling the effects. Barcelona have announced plans to reduce player and staff wages in a bid to “minimise the economic impact” caused by the outbreak. During the crisis, it is understood that Barcelona want to reduce salaries by 70 per cent while the players have offered to cut their wages by 30 per cent for the rest of the season. As it stands, no agreement has been reached. The club are adamant there will be wage cuts, beginning retrospectively from March 19, so where does this leave Lionel Messi? The Argentine faces a significant wage cut as a result of the coronavirus crisis The Argentine, whose contract expires next summer, earns a reported £500,000-a-week. His salary amounts to over £31m, before bonuses. Barcelona sit two points clear at the top of La Liga, but the fractious relationship between the club and its players has brought scrutiny to a clause in Messi’s deal which would allow him to leave on a free transfer this summer. The changing room is divided, and with the reduction in wages set to be felt across the board – even for the women’s team – Messi’s view on the situation could prove decisive. The Catalan club’s wage costs exceed any other team in sport, while matchday income of around £5.5m per game has also stopped helping offset expenditures. Despite last season’s revenue being recorded at £726m, megastores and the club museum have also been closed. Barcelona hope to push through the wage cut under “ERTE”, the temporary employment regulation that has been set up, but the true cost of potentially alienating its players may only be felt further down the line.

Arsenal, Spurs target Sabitzer hints at RB Leipzig stay
But the 26-year-old has indicated that he would like to stay with Leipzig for at least another year. He told Bundesliga.com: “Yeah, as I said, we’re a young team so it’s not always easy – especially when a lot of noise comes from outside, asking whether we’ll win the league, can we do it, all that. “So that adds a bit of pressure and perhaps one or two people think about it too much and it holds you back a bit.Advertisement “We’ve experienced that now, and we have to learn how to deal with it. And next year we want to go for it again, if possible.” “I was a striker in my early days or a No.10, so I wasn’t usually far away from the goal, and this season it started like that again.

Polina Kozyreva clinches upset over No. 15 Notre Dame
When Polina Kozyreva is in the midst of a match, she tends to look concerned. Eyebrows narrowed and her mouth positioned in a slight frown is nothing out of the ordinary for the freshman. But against No. 15 Notre Dame, Kozyreva flashed a rare smile. Ahead in the third set 5-4, 40-40, Kozyreva hit two lobs before crushing a shot to Julia Lilien’s backhand. The ball clipped the line, giving Syracuse (7-2, 2-1 Atlantic Coast) a 4-3 victory over the Fighting Irish (8-5, 1-2), and Kozyreva a 6-4, 6-7, 6-4 win. And with her teammates cheering her on, Kozyreva — who won her first singles match since a left ankle injury three weeks ago — felt comfortable for the first time in quite some time.“It was like my family was here,” said Kozyreva. “It felt warm and cozy.”“Warm and cozy” is not how most would describe a three-set upset victory. But inside Drumlins Country Club, with its fireplace lit in the lobby, it was warm. Even so, the lobby and courts were the furthest thing from quiet – or as some might describe “cozy”. Once Syracuse started up a chant of “Let’s go Orange,” Notre Dame tried to drown them out with a “Let’s go Irish” chant of their own.“I didn’t feel that much pressure on my match,” Kozyreva said. “I just felt I need to have fun tonight. I don’t need to win this match necessarily I just need to enjoy myself on the court.”AdvertisementThis is placeholder textKozyreva felt she had something to prove to her teammates, or her “sisters” as she called them. Kozyreva said she acted “depressed” when she couldn’t play, so Friday presented a refreshing opportunity to step up for her team. Just like veterans Guzal Yusupova and Sonya Treshcheva did against St. John’s and Boston College, respectively.With head coach Younes Limam and assistant Jennifer Meredith patrolling the sidelines of the freshman’s matches, Kozyreva proved herself. Limam wasn’t sure if Kozyreva could pull out the win, and Kozyreva even admitted she got tight during the important points. As Lilien mounted a third-set comeback – winning three-straight games to push the score to 5-4 – Kim Hansen put a hand Zeynep Erman’s shoulder, furrowing her eyebrows with concern.Kozyreva had never been in a position like this one before. Beside reminding his young player to breathe, Limam watched with crossed arms from Court 2 with his team.But a little boost of self confidence from Meredith helped turn the momentum of Kozyreva’s match.“I’m really bad when it comes to the important points, because I’m nervous, but (Meredith) was there,” said Kozyreva. “She said, ‘You’re stronger than her’ like 10 times. And I go, “Yeah I’m stronger than her 10 times you’re right.’”Strength wasn’t a problem for Kozyreva, whose booming forehands forced Lilien to run sideline to sideline, up to the net and back. More often than not, after all that running, Kozyreva would clip the sideline with an untouched shot. That’s exactly what happened in the 33rd and final game of the match.Senior Miranda Ramirez and Erman, a freshman, also sprinkled their respective courts with a variety of shots throughout their matches. After jumping out to a quick three-game lead, Ramirez led for the rest of the set, eventually defeating Zoe Spence 6-4, 6-3. Erman secured a victory for her team to even the score at 3-3. After starting the first set down 4-2, Erman stared at the tarp by her court for 10 seconds to regroup. She then won the next five games, and eventually the match 7-6, 6-3. After Erman won the final game against Maeve Koscielski, both she and Limam pumped their fists, with Erman cocking back her head and yelling in triumph.With her teammates rooting her on after every point Kozyreva had supporters on either side of her. Student assistant coach Dina Hegab poked her head out of a Drumlin’s lobby window to watch Kozyreva’s match on Court 1.After winning on an untouched ball that just nabbed the baseline, Kozyreva skipped off the court, smiling the whole way. Before even shaking the hand of the umpire, Kozyreva was swarmed by her teammates. After hugs from the team, Syracuse surrounded Kozyreva in a team huddle. Limam said Kozyreva spent hours every day working with trainers to recover from her injury as quickly as possible. And her teammates took notice of the time and effort Kozyreva endured to get back on court.“She wants to be in every practice,” Erman said of Kozyreva. “She has pain. We all know she still has a little pain but she’s like trying her best.”For Kozyreva, today was about enjoying herself. Throughout her return from injury, Kozyreva’s teammates told her to take her time and not rush herself back. And today, Kozyreva pulled through when her “sisters” needed her.“I liked when everyone lined up on my court decided to support me,” Kozyreva said. “Oh, guys, I love you so much.” Comments Facebook Twitter Google+ Published on February 28, 2020 at 8:22 pm Contact Thomas: tgshults@syr.edu | @ThomasShults5
