'The photo of Messi's contract renewal? First, focus on him with Golden Shoe'

"The photo of his contract renewal? First focus on this," Mestre said during the presentation of the 'Golden Shoe', increasing the suspense for the football world, as fans await to hear news about the Barcelona star's immediate future.

Although club president Josep Maria Bartomeu has insisted that Messi has already signed a new deal, the supporters of the Catalan giants are doubting his assurances and won't be satisfied until they see concrete proof of the 30-year-old committing his future to the Camp Nou.

In Barcelona, they thought that the presentation of the 'Golden Shoe' would be the perfect opportunity  to provide new information on the renewal or, at least, show a photo of the player alongside the president, which would calm the nerves of the club's anxious supporters.
