Barcelona defender Javier Mascherano is confident Lionel Messi is in good spirits.
Messi cast doubt over his future at Barca this week.
"Leo has always said that he wants to end his career at Barcelona," he told Marca. "The truth is that he didn't say anything odd. Messi said what all of us players think. You can't predict what you're going to be doing in six years' time in football. You don't know what the future holds. That's the truth.
"It's impossible to discredit one of the best players in history. In my view, that's impossible. I love this sport and a player like Leo is very difficult to discredit. He's always behaved like a professional."
