Sports Mole rounds up all of the latest transfer news in La Liga on Friday, January 1.

Friday morning's La Liga transfer talk news roundup:


Lionel Messi 'to stay at Barcelona until 2023'

Lionel Messi is supposedly ready to commit his future to Barcelona until 2023 before heading to the United States.

The 33-year-old, who tried and failed to force a move elsewhere in the summer, is free to enter talks with other clubs in January with his contract at Camp Nou due to expire at the end of the current campaign.

Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain are regarded as the favourites to land the six-time Ballon d'Or winner if he does call time on his Blaugrana career, while Inter Miami have also been linked with a swoop after he admitted that he would like to play in the MLS one day.

According to El Larguero's Jose Antonio Ponseti, Messi is indeed keen to move to Inter Miami but will wait until 2023 to make the journey across the Atlantic.

Ponseti claims that the Argentine is willing to stay on at Barcelona - where he has registered 10 goals and five assists in all competitions this season - for the sake of his children's education.

A recent report suggested that Messi is set to reunite with former Barca teammate Luis Suarez at Inter Miami - the MLS outfit co-owned by David Beckham - in the near future.



Real Madrid 'not worried by Barcelona's interest in Erling Braut Haaland'

Real Madrid are reportedly not concerned by suggestions that Barcelona could sign Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Braut Haaland in the near future.

The 20-year-old is widely regarded as one of the best young talents in world football and has been in sensational form for BVB since arriving in January, scoring 33 times in 32 appearances.

Madrid have long been linked with the Norway international, and it is thought that Los Blancos have identified him as their number one target to replace Karim Benzema.

Barca will allegedly complete a move for Haaland if Emili Rousaud becomes the Catalan side's new president.

However, according to AS, Zinedine Zidane's side are calm regarding the latest developments and still believe that they are in pole position to bring the Norwegian to La Liga.

Haaland, who is unlikely to be able to leave Dortmund until a release clause comes into play in 2022, has scored 17 times in 14 appearances for his Bundesliga club this season.

Manchester United are also believed to be long-term admirers of the forward.
