Barcelona forward Lionel Messi admits "I don't know where I'll be next
year" although says he wants to stay at the Catalan club.
The Argentina captain had
dismissed speculation
linking him with a move as "lies" at the weekend.
But the 27-year-old said "nobody knows what the future holds" at Monday's Ballon d'Or ceremony in Zurich.
He lost out to Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo
as world footballer of the year for the second year in a row.
Messi was asked if he envisaged ending his career at
Barcelona, his only senior club, or at Argentina's Newell's Old Boys in
his hometown of Rosario.
"I'm not sure what's going to happen, whether I'd go to Newell's," he said.
"I don't know where I'll be next year although I've always said I want to end my career at Barcelona."
It had been suggested La Liga's record goalscorer might
leave the club following reports of a training-ground row with manager
Luis Enrique, who took over last summer.
He has spent his entire career at the Nou Camp, winning
three Champions Leagues and six La Liga titles as well as four world
footballer of the year awards, since making his debut in 2004. He is
contracted until 2019.
