Lionel Messi, the star Argentine striker, has signed a new contract with Spanish giants Barcelona. Under the new contract, Messi will stay at the Catalan club until 2016 and the existing contract has a buyout clause of 250 million euros, exactly 100 million euros more than what was included in the previous contract that was supposed to run until 2014.
Messi, in his reaction to the contract extension, has said that he will never leave Barcelona. No doubt, it is definitely good news for the Barcelona fans. Messi is now 22 and has many years of action ahead of him. Moreover, he has been in excellent form and he is improving his game consistently. There is no doubt, Messi was instrumental behind Barcelona’s treble last season. The striker is the most favorite to win this year’s FIFA World Player of the Year Award.
