In other words, at zero o’clock sharp, “La Pulga” could theoretically sign for whoever he wanted without Barcelona getting a cent for him.
To prevent this worst-case scenario, board member Joan Laporta works around the clock to keep the coveted goalscorer.

Barça reportedly confident about renewal
The interest in the six-time Ballon d’Or winner is still great, most recently the rumors about a possible move to Paris Saint-Germain have been fueled.
As the transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano recently reported, Blaugrana is also confident that it will be able to expand the expiring working paper in the near future.
A contract is under discussion until 2023, for which the Argentine club icon would obviously have to accept a drop in salary.
Will Messi Barça still be around?
The Spanish journalist Sergi Sole, who works for “Mundo Deportivo”, among others, is in the same line. If you believe the Spaniard’s statements, the contract will be signed in the next few days.
He recently revealed to “Sky” that the details of the new Messi contract only have to be checked legally, otherwise the paper is ready to be signed.
If the procedure actually goes over the stage in the next two days, the 34-year-old would not be considered without a club, but would stay with FC Barcelona, where he has been a professional since 2005, as a player.
