Barcelona president, Joan Laporta, wants Lionel Messi to make his contract call “as soon as possible”.
Laporta also said Sergio Aguero who joined as a free agent this summer, is “helping” talk his compatriot into penning fresh terms.
Messi himself will be a free agent at the end of June, but an extended stay at Barcelona is also being mooted.
