Inter Milan powerbroker Marco Tronchetti Provera believes Lionel Messi will stay with Barcelona.

The Pirelli boss has spoken openly of tempting Messi to Inter.

However, despite doubts over his new contract, Provera believes Messi will be staying.

"Messi? I think it's going to be a dream in the drawer. He's going to stay in Barça. When I saw him play Saturday and Tuesday night, he seems to become stronger and stronger, that's football!" declared Provera.

"Two footballers who arouse the most fantasy of all? Messi and Neymar. I will say no more because otherwise you will start looking (for speculation)."
