Lionel Messi has only a matter of weeks remaining on his Barcelona contract whilst the Argentine maestro and talisman endured a frustrating outing in El Clasico as Real Madrid went top of La Liga with a 2-1 victory.<\/p>\n
Barcelona director Guillermo Amor said he “hopes” Lionel Messi has not played in his final Clasico after the Blaugrana was overtaken in a 2-1 defeat at Real Madrid on Saturday night as Karim Benzema and Toni Kroos fired Los Blancos to victory, with Oscar Mingueza managing to pull one back for the visitors in the second half with heavy rain making things difficult for both sides and officials on the pitch.<\/p>\n
With less than three months remaining on his contract at Camp Nou, Messi will never face Los Blancos in Barcelona colors again – unless he agrees to a new deal.<\/p>\n
Amor – who made over 300 La Liga appearances for Barcelona between 1988 and 1998 – was unable to provide an encouraging update on negotiations and said he hopes this was not Messi’s final El Clasico outing.<\/p>\n
