Messi has had a last few months to remember as he played a crucial role in Argentina’s ascension to South American supremacy. He starred with four goals and five assists to become the best player of the tournament. Most importantly, he delivered Argentina their first major international trophy after 28 years. Messi’s holiday in the US is bound to raise speculations about the Argentine’s next possible destination with many rumours linking him with a move to the Major League Soccer (MLS).
However, there has been numerous reports stating that he is close to new deal with Barcelona and has also accepted a 50% paycut owing to the club’s financial problems. Barcelona president Joan Laporta is confident he would get Messi to put pen on paper. The Barcelona star is also a leading candidate to win this year’s Ballon D’or.
