An-Najah News - The corona virus came to hit Barcelona's future plans for completing negotiations with the legend player Lionel Messi, to renew his contract.

Messi's contract with Barcelona ends at the end of next season, and he also has a condition in his contract that gives him the freedom to leave at the end of the current season without any compensation.

According to the Spanish newspaper "Mundo Deportivo", the freezing of activity in Europe due to coronavirus, and the isolation of players and officials in their homes, will delay the settlement of negotiations.

The report indicated that Messi does not want to leave Barcelona, ​​and wants to reach an agreement for renewal.

At the same time, Barcelona officials are very calm in this regard, although they had agreed to complete all the details before next June.

During this time, telephone contacts could be made between Messi and Barcelona representatives, but the most important stage of the negotiations will be postponed until the end of the corona virus crisis.
