Lionel Messi will reportedly wait until the end of the season before deciding whether to sign a new contract with Barcelona or join a new club.

The 33-year-old, who failed in his attempt to leave Camp Nou last summer, is into the final three months of his existing deal.

Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City are believed to be interested in signing Messi on a free contract, but Barca have not given up hope of tying the superstar forward down to fresh terms.

According to the Daily Mail, Messi himself remains "50/50" as to whether he will stay at Barcelona, the club he has represented for his entire career, beyond June.

The report indicates that, while Joan Laporta's re-election as president on Sunday was welcomed by the Argentina international, his future is still a long way from being resolved and a decision will not be rushed.

Messi, who has won a record six Ballons d'Or, is believed to be on wages of around £77m a year at Camp Nou.
