Lionel Messi would like to play for Newell's Old Boys in Argentina before he retires, having only played for Barcelona in his career so far, reports Reuters.

"I'm increasingly sure that in Europe, Barcelona will be my only club," Messi told Argentine television station El Trece.

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner, 30, would one day like to feature for the team he trained with as a boy in his native Rosario before moving to Barcelona at 13, where he has a contract until 2021.

"I always said I wanted to play in Argentine football one day, I don't know if it will happen but I have it in my mind.
