Williams, a six-times champion in New York, struggled with Pironkova slice forehand early and was at risk of her earliest US Open exit in 14 years until she used her experience to find a way back against a resurgent Pironkova.

Spanish League / La Liga, agrees with FC Barcelona and does not process the withdrawal of Lionel Messi

 

Written by : Jose Alvarado Sandoval " DJ Malanga " 

The entity of Spanish soccer; "La Liga" has published a statement where it makes the Argentine player Lionel Messi see that the only way to get out of the Barça team is by paying the 700 million euros from its resection clause, since according to the highest soccer entity From Spain, the contract of Mr. Messi and FC Barcelona is valid and in force until today.

Press room

SUN 08.30.2020

In relation to the different interpretations (some of them contradictory to each other) published in recent days in different media, related to the contractual situation of the player Lionel Andrés Messi with FC Barcelona, ​​La Liga considers it convenient to clarify that, once the player's contract with his club:

The contract is currently in force and has a "termination clause" applicable to the event that Lionel Andrés Messi decides to urge the early unilateral termination of the contract, carried out in accordance with article 16 of Royal Decree 1006/1985, of June 26, by which regulates the special employment relationship of professional athletes.

In compliance with the applicable regulations, and following the corresponding procedure in these cases, La Liga will not carry out the prior visa process for the player to be removed from the federation if they have not previously paid the amount of said clause.

 La Liga - 2020

Today Messi has not presented himself to the PCR tests, as if the rest of the squad did, the Argentine is determined to leave and will not turn back, so he had to stay in the stands until January and leave without giving him a single Euro of profit to the team where he has played for more than 20 years and where he has reaped more than 34 titles

To me particularly, it seems to me and to a certain extent it is logical, that the League, to pronounce itself on the side of Barca, and not the player, a game of the Argentine star, would mean a hard media blow, of economic interest and even devaluation in sponsorships and collection of rights for the Spanish league around the world, it is not the same to sell the rights with Messi, than without Messi.

So the resolution of the highest body that programs the development of soccer games in Spain "La Liga" does not seem to me the last word in the Messi vs Barcelona conflict, given their interests at stake.

This will have to be resolved by FIFA, the Courts, the TAZ, or someone else.

The African player Sadio Mane is an example in thought and way of seeing life

And it is that the player of the Premier League team did not have a good time in his childhood, where he endured hunger, did not have access, or opportunity to a decent home, to study and less to eat the feeding times, that every child or girl need, for a normal development.

That is why the Senegalese star and English soccer, allocates part of his salary, to help the poorest people in his town of birth and raising called Sedhiou, either with food, investment in new schools and colleges, that help to the development, happiness and a more dignified life of the children who currently live in that place.

Sadio Mane, does not forget the people who helped him in his town to be the great professional he is today, people who saw great potential in him, such as people from his village and his uncle, who contributed money, to carry out the soccer tests in Dakar, where several viewers of the greatest teams in the world would arrive

That is why Sadio is very clear about what he does with most of his salary, where he shows his most human side, leading by example, where he prefers to spend a large part of his earned money, on shoes, food, school construction and financial aid to the neediest people in his village, who spend their fortune on luxury cars and watches of great economic cost, which does not contribute anything to the world.

Sadio, he does not forget where he comes from, what it means to be in need, to endure hunger, to be in extreme poverty and not have had the opportunity, which today he offers to so many families and the children of his beloved Senegal and in general, to his dear Africa.

There is no doubt that we are witnessing good deeds, that every human being who has the means to do so, should without thinking twice do it, just like the Liverpool forward does, an example of solidarity, of love for others , of gratitude and genuine values, which make us feel proud that there are people with that charisma and gift of help.

The world needs, give many Sadios Mane, who contribute to create a better world for all, where selfishness does not exist and where people shake hands, one another, doing good works, that helps to create a smile of hope, and at the same time, make disappear, a tear of anguish.

It is not what you have, but how, and with whom you share it.

Thanks Sadio Mane
