Messi hints at moving

After watching archrival Cristiano Ronaldo beat him in voting for the Ballon d'Or in Zurich on Monday, Lionel Messi reignited speculation over his own future by saying: "I don't know where I'll be next year."

The Barcelona and Argentina superstar appeared to backtrack on his own comments made 24 hours earlier that rumors he could leave Camp Nou for Chelsea or Manchester City were "all lies."

"I always said that I would finish my career at Barcelona and then at (his home town club in Argentina) Newell's," Messi told reporters after Real Madrid's Ronaldo lifted the world player of the year title for the second year in succession at a glittering FIFA awards ceremony.
