Barcelona captain Lionel Messi is reportedly furious that details of his private meeting with new manager Ronald Koeman were leaked to the press.

Barcelona captain Lionel Messi is reportedly furious that details of his private meeting with new manager Ronald Koeman were leaked to the media.

Messi's future at the club he has represented his entire career has faced unprecedented scrutiny in the wake of their Champions League exit at the hands of Bayern Munich last week.

The 33-year-old is understood to be considering a move away more seriously than ever before and interrupted his holiday to return to Barcelona for talks with Koeman this week.

Reports emerged in the wake of that meeting suggesting that Messi told Koeman he was 'more outside the club than inside', and Marca claims that the Argentine is angry at such details being leaked.

Club president Josep Maria Bartomeu, whose own future at the club is also in doubt, insisted that Messi will still be at Camp Nou next season.

The six-time Ballon d'Or winner is out of contract next summer but has a £631m release clause in his current deal.
