梅西已告知巴萨将离队

Leo Messi has reportedly informed FC Barcelona that he wants to leave the club immediately despite having a 700 million euro release clause in his contract.

据多家媒体报道，梅西已通知巴塞罗那俱乐部，希望立刻离开这家球队，尽管梅西的合约中包含的买断条款解约金为7亿欧元（约合人民币57.26亿元）。

The news was broken on Tuesday by Argentinean TV channel TyC Sports and repeated in the Spanish media, explaining that Messi has sent a registered fax to the club highlighting a clause which allows him to unilaterally rescind his contract at the end of this season.

8月25日，阿根廷TyC体育台最先爆出这则消息，随后西班牙媒体也报道了此事，并称梅西已通过传真通知俱乐部，希望通过合同中的赛季末单方面解约条款来解除合同。

The Barcelona based "El Mundo Deportivo" newspaper reported that the club has indeed received a fax from Messi but that the clause allowing him to walk away for free expired on June 10.

据总部位于巴塞罗那的《西班牙世界体育报》报道，巴塞罗那俱乐部证实收到了梅西的传真，但能让梅西免费与俱乐部解除合同的条款已于6月10日过期。

However, the striker believes that this is irrelevant because Barca's campaign only ended on Aug 14 following their 8-2 elimination from the Champions League by Bayern Munich.

然而梅西认为这无关紧要，因为巴萨本赛季最后一场比赛是在8月14日，那天巴塞罗那队在欧冠四分之一决赛中2:8不敌拜仁慕尼黑队。

The striker reportedly expressed doubts over his future at the Camp Nou, where he has been since arriving as a 13 year-old, making 731 appearances and scoring 634 goals for the club, in a recent telephone conversation with new coach Ronald Koeman.

据报道，在近日与球队新主帅科曼的电话中，梅西对自己在诺坎普的未来表示疑虑。梅西13岁来到巴塞罗那，为这家球队总计出场731次，打进634球。
