FC BARCELONA OBLIGED TO ALLOW MESSI TO GO TO PEKING 2008

Bad news for FC BARCELONA in its "fight" to retain its star
forward LIONEL MESSI for its important upcoming pre-

qualifying Champions League home & away game.

The World Football ruling authority FIFA has ruled in favour of
Argentina & Messi, & this will oblige FC Barcelona to release the
player for the upcoming Peking 2008 Olympic Games.

The main arguement, amongst others, is that under 23 year old

players are "protected" from Clubs holding them back, specially

when its a once & a lifetime opportunity for younger players to
participate in an Olympic Game.

This should put back the smile on Messi face as he was deseperate to
join the Argentine national squad & participate at Peking. Bad news

for Barça who lose their most inform & best player for about a

month
