Barcelona boss that is Ronald Koeman said the club would do everything possible to convince Lionel Messi to hold a meeting with the new president named Joan Laporta and then plan for next season.

The 33 -year-old intended to leave Barca last year under the previous regime. Koeman has met with Laporta who was elected in March, during the international break to discuss Lionel Messi’s future and possible summer signings.
