Messi loyal to Barcelona

The Argentinean says he is a one-club player ahead of their Champions league clash with Chelsea on Tuesday.

He told the News of the World: “To be honest, every time I get asked this question I find it very boring.

“I have said many times I intend to stay with Barcelona until I retire. I know a lot of players say this, but I really mean it. You have seen how well we have been doing and you have seen the way we play football – why would I want to leave?

“There are a lot of smiling faces in our dressing-room. There is no reason for me to ever want to leave.

“I am loyal as well. I am aware that I owe Barcelona a lot. They gave me a chance and now I want to reward them with even more success.”
