The club have come up with a massive update on their future plans
Barcelona vice president Jordi Mestre has come up with some HUGE news following the club’s 4-1 win over Villarreal at Camp Nou on Saturday.
Barca went into the game amid huge speculation over Lionel Messi’s future with some reports claiming he’d rejected a new deal while others insisted he was about to sign on.
This week has also seen continuing rumours over who will replace Luis Enrique with Laurent Blanc and Ronald Koeman all over the headlines along with Ernesto Valverde.
However, Mestre spoke to Spanish TV station TV3 after the game and says Barcelona are close to a new deal for their star man and a replacement for their outgoing coach.
"Messi, for many years, has been at the highest level, he’s won titles and shown his greatness. He is generous, discreet, never protesting," he said.
"Messi’s contract renewal is in the final stretch. There will soon be good news.
"We decided the profile of the next coach. The president has the last word. We won’t say anything until the end of season out of respect for Luis Enrique."
Simply massive comments from Mestre and most welcome too, particularly in light of the recent speculation surrounding Messi.
But who will replace Luis Enrique? We still seem no closer to knowing, the favourite appears to be Valverde, but it looks as though we will have to wait another few weeks for confirmation. Boo.
