Lionel Messi poses for cute family picture with Antonela and kids after Barcelona star fumes about transfer speculation


LIONEL MESSI has posted a picture with his family amid speculation over his future at Barcelona.

The legendary Argentinian has been linked with a move away from the Nou Camp at the end of the season 16 years after making his first team debut for the club.

But the 33-year-old seemed relax while spending some time with his wife Antonela and three kids on Thursday.

His partner captioned the photo: “Best time of the day.”

Messi has not decided where his future lies yet with his Barcelona contract quickly running down.

The six-time Ballon d’Or winner is out of contract in the summer after nearly two decades at the Catalan club.

He has been linked with both Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain ever since threatening to quit last summer.

But it has now been reported that Messi has not held talks with any club, despite being free to do so since January 1.

Goal.com reports that Messi is tired of the constant media speculation, and says that no one else can say where he will play next season other than himself.

Barcelona have struggled to keep pace with La Liga table toppers Atletico Madrid so far this season.

Ronald Koeman’s side are currently ten points off Diego Simeone’s team and have already suffered four league defeats.

Meanwhile, Messi has been criticised by some for not being at his usual extremely high standard.

However, the Argentine has still registered 16 goals in 25 games in all competitions so far in the 2020-21 campaign, with only Luis Suarez having netted more in La Liga.
