The president of the Spanish League, Javier Tebas, is confident Barcelona will be able to register Lionel Messi in time for the start of the new season despite the club's financial problems. Right now he is a lot a closer to staying at Barcelona than he is going to another club.' 'It's unthinkable that he could get the same contract at Barcelona and that goes for other clubs. Tebas has been accused by some of wanting Barcelona to lose Messi and he said La Liga had survived the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar in the past. But he reiterated his belief that no player's departure would destroy La Liga.
