Barcelona has banned captain, Lionel Messi, from participating in the club’s training.
AS reports that Messi will not be training at Barcelona until he signs a new contract with the Camp Nou club.
The Argentina captain has been a free agent since July 1.
Despite an announcement that Barca number 10 would sign a five-year contract, the deal is yet to be signed.
Due to Barcelona’s financial struggles, Messi has been forced to accept a pay cut in order to remain at the club.
The deal will reportedly see Messi take a 50 percent pay cut.
Messi’s previous contract expired on June 30, meaning that he has been a free agent since July 1 but he is unlikely to agree to terms elsewhere.
