Barcelona face a complicated summer, with the possible return of Leo Messi but, at the same time, with a 'Financial Fair Play' to overcome if they want to strengthen the squad and not weaken it.
One of the allies Joan Laporta may have is Rafaela Pimenta. The agent who has replaced the late Mino Raiola confessed to having a great relationship with the president of the Catalan giants.
"I love Laporta to death. You can't ask me about him because I'm always at his disposal. I have great admiration for him. I had a lot of involvement with Ibrahimovic's transfer. At that time, the only contract that wasn't in Catalan was his, and Laporta did it for me, as a gesture to facilitate the operation", he explained in 'Mundo Deportivo'.
Despite the summer ahead of him, Pimenta has full confidence in the president: "Joan doesn't need advice from me or anyone else, I'm sure of that. But of course I'm always at his disposal. If he needs good players, we have them".
"There are players who can do well for Barcelona and the club know that. They have always received me very well. Then, whether or not the players are available is a technical question," he said.
Finally, he answered the question about whether Messi should return to 'can Barca': "Messi deserves to retire wherever he wants, as he is one of the greatest players of all time and he has to end up where he is happy".
