Barcelona ace Messi angry over emergency fullback signing plans

Barcelona ace Lionel Messi is upset over their emergency fullback signing plans.

Messi and senior teammates are unhappy with Barca moving for Malaga fullback Roberto Rosales and Deportivo La Coruna's Juanfran as a replacement for the crocked Aleix Vidal.

The senior group are fed up with a transfer policy focused on plugging gaps and instead believe it's time Barca signed players to enhance the first XI.

Barca plan to spend €6 million on Rosales or Juanfran before selling the player on in June.

Messi and co are demanding a more long-term approach and argue that Sergi Roberto can fill in for Vidal rather than needlessly spend money this week.
