Lionel Messi 'tired' about his portrayal at Barcelona

Lionel Messi has allegedly acknowledged that he remains unhappy with life at Barcelona.

Despite having looked to depart the Catalan giants during the summer transfer window, Messi has remained as a first-team regular under new boss Ronald Koeman.

At a time when the Argentine has not performed to his usual standards, comments from Antoine Griezmann's former agent Eric Olhats have suggested that the 33-year-old has a strong say in matters both on and off the pitch.

Having been accused of not welcoming Griezmann to the club in 2019, reports in Spain say that Messi was left frustrated when quizzed on the matter earlier this week.

When arriving back from international duty, Messi allegedly said: "I'm tired of always being the problem for everything at the club."

Messi is still being tipped to depart Camp Nou on a free transfer in 2021.
