Contract talks between Lionel Messi and Barcelona haven't gone down as smoothly as both parties wanted, and the latest setback is good testimony of such an allegation.
Reports by various sources, including As, Metro and The Sun, claim that Messi has rejected Barcelona's first offer to extend his deal at Camp Nou. These reports suggest that Barcelona's execs have offered Messi a sum surrounding the 30-35 million euros realm, which the player hasn't accepted.
It is yet unclear whether Messi wants a long contract or not with Los Blaugranas, as the details about the deal offered by Barcelona's front office are not that forthcoming. Nevertheless, these reports admit that terms are soon to be agreed, and Barcelona's president Josep Maria Bartomeu is "more optimistic than ever" when asked about the team's chances of keeping Messi around.
