Hristo Stoichkov says that Barcelona president Joan Laporta won't be able to convince Lionel Messi to stay with the club as the Argentinian star will make the decision all on his own.
Messi's contract is set to come to an end this summer, leaving the Barcelona legend free to move on should he so desire.
Last summer, Messi told Goal that he wanted to leave the club due to his unhappiness with then-president Josep Maria Bartomeu but, even with Bartomeu gone, his future remains uncertain.
