Messi will be the best-paid player in the world, says Barcelona President


Barcelona has vowed to make fresh deals with Messi in the new year as the 29-year old shows readiness to stay in the Camp Nou.

Most star players in Barcelona like Suarez and Cristiano Ronaldo in Real Madrid have renewed their contracts. Ronaldo's new deal gives him €430,000 per week which makes him the world's top earner.

But Barcelona President has said that Messi whose contract expires in 2018 will have his contract extended and his pay will be increased according to his golden status.

He said, "For me, the Ballon d'Or should have been won by Messi every year. When you hear the rest of the world speak about him, there's no possible doubt. You don't need to be a Barca fan to recognise the merits of Messi the player. He's No. 1 without doubt.

"I don't want to talk about numbers really. If he's the best player in the world, though, then he should be the best player in the world in all aspects, even economically. That's all I will say on numbers."

Chelsea won't sign new players - Jose Mourinho

Chelsea will make no signings in the January transfer window, says manager Jose Mourinho. The team has enough capable and balanced players to even out in the coming competitions. The Blues have six matches before January 1, with the first starting today against Hull City. Mourinho plans to rest his senior players for this Yuletide season, saying he is doubtful any one player should appear in all the six matches. The manager has granted his European-based players a two-day 'holiday' to rest and 'have a nice dinner with their families'. The former Real Madrid manager's side meets Hull City in the Premier league today. Petr Cech will replace injured skipper goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois in the Hull City face-off. Cesc Fabregas is ruled out for suspension and midfielder Nemanja Matic joins the squad after ban.
