According to the Spanish newspaper 'Marca' FC Barcelona has decided today that they will pay 35 million € for the renewal of Messi's contract. And not one cent more.
His new contract will not be announced until both sides have come to an agreement. The Spanish sport magazine adds that they could sign one amount and add another for compensating the conclusion of the contract.
This way, the numbers square and Barca can take on the renewal without problems.
For now, we still have to wait whether the Argentinian star decides to sign and stay with Barca. In the meantime he continues to amaze football fans with his amazing way of playing.
