The agent of Samuel Eto'o insists the striker wants to stay with Barcelona.

Barca directors are near panicking over Eto'o's decision to delay new contract talks until the end of the season. The Cameroon star is inside the final 18 months of his current deal and is a big-money target for Inter Milan, Chelsea and Manchester City.

But his advisor, Josep Maria Mesalles, said: "I said at the time, and Eto'o has corroborated this, that on the question of the future we will speak at the end of the season.

"He is happy, Barca has a lot at stake and I think today it is more sensible to devote all efforts to try to win the three titles at stake. And in the end we will have all the time to negotiate."
