Real Madrid coach Zidane hoping Messi doesn’t leave Barcelona

Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane has weighed into the row between Lionel Messi and Barcelona.

It’s broke in Spain over the last 24 hours that Messi has informed Barca president Josep Maria Bartomeu he will not consider new contract talks. Instead, as it stands, Messi is prepared to play out the final year of his deal and depart next summer.

After victory over Getafe last night, Zidane was asked about the Messi reports and said: “I don’t know what’s going to happen.

“We don’t expect that (for Messi to leave) because he’s in this Liga and we want the best here.”
