Suarez was called by new coach Ronald Koeman on Monday and told he needed to find another club. Everybody wondered who leaked the news that Lionel Messi had told Koeman he felt 'more out than in' at the club. This leak to the same Catalan radio station had most in Barcelona surmising that it's the club making Koeman's discussions with players public knowledge. But while a potential legal battle over Messi's future looms, Suarez will certainly go for free. It's notable that Suarez, Vidal and Alba, the three players Messi is closest to – are all either up for sale or have been threatened with being sold.
