Messi, on everyone's lips but in talks with nobody

Leo Messi's contract with Barca runs until June 2021. That means that, if nothing changes, from January 1, the Argentine is free to negotiate his transfer to another club for next summer.

Messi turned the market upside down last summer when he sent a fax to Barcelona in which he made it clear that he wanted to leave. Finally, he chose to stay until the end of his contract to avoid legal problems with the "club of his life".

Since then, a lot has changed at Barca. Josep Maria Bartomeu left the presidency and there are several candidates fighting for the position.

Freixa, Laporta, Benedito, Font and company want to be the next ones to be in charge of the club. And all of them have appointed, as it could not be otherwise, Leo Messi in their respective projects.

But, in spite of being the talk of the town, 'Sport World' confirmed that nobody has contacted Leo Messi. No pre-candidate and no one from management has reportedly sat down to talk to '10' about his future.

Everyone at Camp Nou confirms that Leo Messi has changed his mind and, with this change in the board of directors, has decided to continue in the team he loves. The Argentinean, meanwhile, has not spoken out again.
