Mascherano is killing himself: by saying this at Barça and Leo Messi responded

The departure in the next winter market of Javier Mascherano is almost done. The center has already asked his coach, Ernesto Valverde and the visible head of the Culé technical secretariat, Robert Fernandez , to let him go.

Within minutes he has played so far in this season they are not enough for Mascherano who wants to get shot and beat the World of Russia . And the only way to do it is by playing regularly.

Something he is not doing at Barça . Valverde has hardly counted on him despite having the role of third central. Gerard Piqué and Samuel Umtiti have been, without a doubt , the indisputable headlines.

promises unfulfilled

The fact is that when Ernesto arrived at the bench blaugrana, the first thing he asked the club is to strengthen the defense. He had with Piqué and Umtiti as starters, but wanted to reinforce the wardrobe.

Al Txingurri did not like the idea of ​​having only Javier and Thomas Vermaelenin the chamber in case one of the first swords failed. That's why he asked for the signing of Íñigo Martínez , the head of the Real Sociedad .

The club accepted the proposal and went for the Basque, but at that moment Leo Messi came into play and prevented it. The crack knew that if Martinez arrived his compatriot would not play anything, and Leo wants ' Masche' tocome in form to the World Cup.

When the operation was finally canceled, Valverde talked at length with the " Jefecito" and promised that he would have opportunities and minutes. A promise that has been unfulfilled.

Drop the bomb

But what has really bothered the Argentine central is that at the time Umtiti was injured , everyone came to him to save the furniture. Among them Valverde . The same coach who had promised him minutes and had not given them to him, turned to him for help.

That dark side of Ernesto , according to Javier himself , is the one that is not seen facing the gallery, but now that the defender leaves, he has not hesitated to warn the rest of the squad and has released the bomb: the Txingurri not is what it seems.
