Lionel Messi extends the mystery about the signing of his contract with Barcelona

The presenter of the gala had already warned, at the beginning of the act, that today was not the day to talk about the future of Argentine star Lionel Messi , an issue that every day that passes seems less resolved.

Barcelona announced, last July, the renewal until 2021 of the current La Pulga contract , which ends this season, and the increase of its termination clause to 357 million dollars.

However, to this day, the formal act of the signing, with which the club intended to stage this great news for Barça , has not yet been celebrated .

Accompanied by his wife, Antonela Roccuzo, his son Thiago, surrounded by his teammates Luis Suárez , Andrés Iniesta and Sergio Busquets , and by the president of FC Barcelona, ​​Josep Maria Bartomeu, Messi came out to collect his prize

They asked him about his foundation, which collaborates with the Hospital de Sant Joan de Déu to cure childhood cancer, and also about his neighborhood relationship with Luis Suarez , the person in charge of giving his friend the Golden Boot he received, for the second time , last year.

"I always said that the individual prizes come from the hand of the collective, it's a prize for everyone, without them I would not have scored the goals I did, this is something of the whole group," pointed out Rosario.

He also referred to the fact that he has never considered himself "a striker" and spoke of his evolution as a footballer: "Just as I have grown out of bounds I have done it in. I have been improving and accumulating things in my game and, every day, I enjoy being a player more. "

And so, without even having to draw a single question about his future in Barça, as he had agreed with the organization of the gala, Messi posed to the graphic press with his four Golden Boots, the same as the Portuguese striker Real Madrid, Cristiano Ronaldo
