Barcelona have made it their priority to extend Lionel Messi’s stay at the Nou Camp with former President claiming there will be no issues.
Barcelona’s former President, Joan Laporta, is confident that Messi will have no issues with signing a contract that would keep him in Blaugrana colors until his retirement.
Leo’s future at the club has been a recurring debate since current President Josep Maria Bartomeu insisted that he would confirm the extension before his term ends next year.
The Argentine’s existing contract, which ends in 2021, has a clause that allows him to leave at the end of a season, resulting in speculations at the closure of every term.
Laporta, an expected candidate for next year’s Presidential run, claims that Barca’s No. 10 will have an easy time signing an extension.
“He [Messi] will have no trouble renewing his contract,” Laporta told Deportes Cuatro.

Laporta is also among the many at Barca who wants the return of former Brazilian star, Neymar. The Paris Saint-Germain forward has an uncertain future as it requires all three parties involved to reach a mutual agreement to secure a deal.
