Nasser al-Khelaifi, the president of Paris Saint-Germain, has expressed his belief that Lionel Messi will remain with the team.
Messi’s deal with the Ligue 1 champions runs out next June.
The 35-year-old has already been frequently mentioned in connection with a transfer to Inter Miami of Major League Soccer.
However, there is a clause in Messi’s current contract with PSG that could see him trigger a one-year extension.
“If a player’s not happy you will see their performance not good for the national team. He performed fantastic this season for us, he’s scored a lot of goals and assists for the national team and for the club.
“So what we agreed together that after the World Cup, [we] sit down together. But both sides are very happy, so we will talk after the World Cup,” Al-Khelaifi told Sky Sports.
