Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu on Sunday said he is sure that Argentina forward Lionel Messi will sign a new deal with the club.
The 33-year-old's current deal is set to end during the upcoming year.
"Messi has said many times that he wants to retire here and I have no doubt that he will re-sign," Bartomeu said according to BBC.
Barcelona failed to defend their La Liga title after they conceded it to their arch rivals Real Madrid.
They will play the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie with Napoli on 8 August with the score 1-1 from the first match in February.
Messi, who won the La Liga Golden Boot with 25 goals, has said "things have to change" at the club.
