Contrary to Lionel Messi’s public denial of seeking a new contract with FC Barcelona, recent reports suggest that Messi is in the process of signing a new deal with Barcelona. Messi and his representatives are expected to meet with Barcelona president Sandro Rosell to revisit their contract signed in February. The extension is rumored to be until 2018, with a release clause set at 250 million euros. The reported move follows Messi’s public dispute with Barcelona’s vice-president, Javier Faus, who expressed skepticism about revising Messi’s contract every six months.
