Why Messi, Sergio Ramos Met In Madrid On Wednesday

Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos were among the captains of the 20 Spanish top division clubs that met on Wednesday to discuss LaLiga’s plans to stage a game in the United States, among other issues.

The meeting took place at the Spanish Footballers’ Association (AFE) headquarters in Madrid.

At the end of the meeting, AFE president David Aganzo will give a news conference.

“A meeting between captains and players representing their top division clubs will take place in order to discuss several issues that worry all of them,” the AFE said in a statement on its website.

“The AFE and the footballers don’t understand the unilateral decisions taken by La Liga regarding plans for a league game to be played in the United States.

“The players, as they have notified to AFE, are surprised and upset over not being consulted in an agreement that directly affects them. With their decisions, La Liga are distancing the fans from the players, something that damages the show and the essence of football.

“The players again feel marginalised when it comes to making decisions while we feel that they are the main stars and that their opinions are crucial.”
