The Argentine superstar’s contract at the Nou Camp expires in June
2018 and discussions over a new deal have been ongoing for months.
Talks between Messi’s father and agent, Jorge, and the club president
Josep Maria Bartomeu have yet to yield an agreement for the five-time
Ballon d’Or winner’s future.
But despite the initial contract rejection, AS report that a deal is still likely to be struck over the coming weeks.
Negotiations are very much still ongoing and there is an expectation
that the two parties will find common ground eventually to seal a new
deal.
Messi expects to receive an improved offer from Barcelona and is
prepared to hold out – especially given the recent contracts given to
team-mates Luis Suarez and Neymar. The Argentine, who has four goals in
his last three matches, is therefore happy to wait before tying his
future down at the Catalan club.
