The Argentine has been linked with a sensational switch to the Premier League although the club's president Josep Maria Bartomeu has rubbished rumours he is looking to leave.
Argentine forward Messi, who is currently sidelined with a knee injury, has been linked with a Camp Nou exit, with newspaper reports suggesting that he is considering his options at Barca and would be interested in a move to the Premier League.
Bartomeu has has taken a dim view of the reports, though, and refuted any suggestions that the 28-year-old is looking for a way out. He told 8TV: "People who say Messi is leaving Barcelona should be embarrassed.
"Messi is recovering for the Madrid-Barcelona game. He is hoping to play El Clasico, but injuries have their process.
"Leo and his father said they don't imagine playing at another club. The relationship with the family is very good. We are not in the negotiation phase yet, when the time comes it will be presented.
"He has a contract for the next three seasons. Messi is very angry about the Spanish taxation. It is not normal, the information published on Leo Messi. If his tax advisers have made a mistake they have to pay like everyone else. Messi deserves respect as all do."...news from goal.com
