Sports Mole rounds up all of the latest transfer news in La Liga on Wednesday, February 3.

Wednesday morning's La Liga transfer talk news roundup:


Barcelona boss Ronald Koeman "not confident" of Lionel Messi stay

Ronald Koeman has admitted that he is "not confident" Lionel Messi will stay on at Barcelona beyond this season.

The six-time Ballon d'Or winner has spent his entire career at Camp Nou, racking up more than 750 appearances for the La Liga giants.

Messi failed in an attempt to leave the club last summer, but he is out of contract in four months' time and is able to open talks with foreign clubs regarding a free transfer.

Barca had been hopeful of persuading Messi to agree fresh terms, though Koeman cannot guarantee that the Argentina international will remain in Catalonia.

"I'm not confident about that," Koeman told The Athletic when asked if he thinks Messi will stay. "I'm hopeful, yes, because he's still a great player and he's still winning matches for us, for the team.

"I'm enjoying being his coach. If you look at his qualities every day in the training sessions, it's incredible. Of course, he came as a young kid to Barcelona. And I still don't see Leo Messi in another shirt other than the Barca shirt."

Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City are considered the only two realistic destinations for Messi should he depart Barcelona in the summer.



Paris Saint-Germain 'hope new Neymar deal with entice Lionel Messi'

Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly hopeful that Neymar's new contract will finally be enough to tempt Lionel Messi into joining from Barcelona.

Neymar is rumoured to have put pen to paper on a four-year deal with the French giants, all but ending speculation over a possible move elsewhere for the Brazilian forward in the summer.

Messi has yet to make a decision on his own future, with the Argentina international due to become a free agent at the end of June.

PSG are considered to be the favourites to sign Messi should he depart Camp Nou, and Marca claims that Neymar's new deal is a major boost to their hopes of landing the six-time Ballon d'Or winner.

Messi and Neymar remain close friends following their successful partnership together at Barcelona between 2013 and 2017.

Speaking in December, Neymar admitted that he would love to reunite with Messi next season.
