Messi Signs New Barcelona Contract 5 year extension

Messi signs new Barcelona contract taking a 50 per cent pay-cut to sign a new five-year deal. The Argentine soccer star recently won the Copa America and is looking to the future with the club he so adores.

The contract will see Messi stay at the Camp Nou until he is 39 and will help the club with their cost cutting following warnings from LaLiga president Javier Tebas who says their spending must continue to be reduced drastically before Messi can be registered.

Barcelona have sign3d Sergio Aguero, Memphis Depay and Eric Garcia.

They have also opened negotiations with Atletico Madrid over a proposed swap deal involving Antoine Griezmann and Atletico midfielder Saul Niguez.

Barca president Joan Laporta has remained determined to convince the club talisman to stay after Messi attempted to quit the club last summer.

Despite becoming a free agent and previous interest from Paris St German and Manchester City no talks with other clubs took place in recent weeks.

Messi is on holiday with his family after leading Argentina to Copa America glory over Brazil last weekend, his first major trophy with his country.
The 34-year old has been with Barcelona’s academy since 2000 amassing 778 games and scoring 672 goals.
