Barcelona president Joan Laporta will review the club's accounts before meeting Lionel Messi to discuss the Argentine's future, according to a report.

New Barcelona president Joan Laporta will reportedly review the club's accounts before meeting Lionel Messi to discuss the Argentine's future.

Messi's existing deal at Camp Nou is due to expire at the end of June, and Manchester City are said to be determined to bring him to the Etihad Stadium for the 2021-22 campaign.

The forward is thought to be now open to the idea of penning a fresh deal with Ronald Koeman's side, though, and Laporta will allegedly hold crunch talks with the club's star player before the end of the month.

According to Marca, the new president wants to review Barca's troubled accounts before meeting with Messi and his father for contract talks.

The South American reportedly wants the Catalan giants to guarantee that they will be active in the upcoming transfer windows as he is only willing to commit if the club are capable of challenging for the major trophies.

Messi has scored 25 goals and registered 11 assists in 35 appearances at club level this term, including 19 in 24 La Liga outings, with Koeman's side currently sitting second in the table.
