When PSG star Neymar recently made it known that he’d like to play again with former Barcelona teammate Lionel Messi, all eyes again instantly shifted to the diminutive 33-year-old Argentine wizard, pondering what his decision would be as his contract expiry comes up at the end of the season.
Barça, now fifth in the La Liga table, will be taking on Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League Round of 16. This has led to another fresh batch of rumors headlining Messi heading to the French capital as topic number one with the match-up inching closer.
However, despite all the frenzied buzz coming from Spanish and French media, the Argentina international has reportedly not held talks with anyone over his immediate future.
According to Mundo Deportivo, the forward hasn’t discussed his plans when his contract expires with neither Barça nor the clubs that are reportedly interested having engaged in talks with him. Supposedly.
Messi’s dad and agent, Jorge Messi, has come out on social media denying any rumors of meetings. However, even with allegedly no talks having taken place between Messi’s camp and all interested parties, the Spanish media outlet speculates that Messi still intends to leave Barça.
