Forward “Barcelona” Lionel Messi is not going to leave the club, despite a conflict with the sports director of the Catalans Eric Abidal, reports Sky Sports.
According to the source, the 32-year-old Argentine is still determined to stay in Barcelona, at least until the end of the current contract.
It is reported that the situation became less tense after a conversation between Messi and club president Josep Bartomeu, who also spoke separately with Abidal. The player is open to negotiations on the extension of the contract, but does not intend to rush and wants to return to this issue closer to the completion of the current agreement. He is satisfied with the annual extension for a short term.
Barca, on the contrary, is going to offer a contract for several years, and hopes to meet with his father and agent Jorge in the coming months.
Recall that the valid contract of the Argentine striker expires in the summer of 2021.
