Barcelona president Bartomeu: Don\'t ask me about Messi!

Published on: 25 February 2017

Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu has refused to respond to questions over Lionel Messi's contract talks.

Bartomeu is currently in China, where the club are launching an FCBEscola with Mission Hills Group, and when he was asked about the Argentine and the Asturian he said: "We're not talking about those things."

Bartomeu only wanted to speak about Sunday's game against Atletico Madrid at the Calderon: "Luis Enrique has a game on Sunday, a really important game against Atletico Madrid."

He was less explicit when a journalist insisted on asking about talks to renew Messi's deal again. "Let's go, let's continue," he said, laughing with his usual diplomacy.
