Headache For Barcelona! Messi hints at possible Barca exit in future

The Argentinian came through Barca’s famed youth academy at La Masia, and has since become the talisman during one of the most successful periods in the club’s history but will La Pulga end his trophy-studded career at Camp Nou?

Messi, 27, has always stated that he wishes and desires to remain at Camp Nou until retirement or even after retirement, but in an interview with Argentine newspaper Ole, the forward left a subtle hint that he could move away from the club at some point in the future, raising eyebrows.
“I’m just living in the present, I’m thinking about having a great year at Barcelona and about winning the titles we want to win at Barcelona. Nothing more,” the star said.
“After that, we’ll see. Football has a lot of twists and turns.
“I always said that I’d like to stay there forever, but things don’t always work out as you want them to.
“I have said it many times – if it were up to me, I would stay forever.
“But like I said just now, things don’t always turn out how you would like, especially in football, which is so changeable and in which so many things happen.”
This sounds good to Clubs such as Manchester City and PSG who have had eyes on the Argentine lately and a Bid might just be at the corner.
