Lionel Messi is still undecided about signing a new contract with "Barcelona" as rumors about a possible move to "Man City" continue. The 33-year-old forward will most likely become a free agent next summer, which would mean significant losses for the "La Liga" club. There have been previous reports that "Barcelona" may consider parting ways with the player as early as January to gain some financial benefit. However, "Marca" reports a different story. According to the publication, L. Messi will not be sold in January because the temporary team management does not have the authority, even if the player himself demands to be released to another team, after the resignation of club president Josep Maria Bartomeu. The elections for the new president of "Barcelona" are scheduled for January 24.
