``I am going to wait until the end of the season (to decide),'' the 33-year-old Messi told private Spanish station La Sexta. About fifth-place Barcelona's future prospects, Messi said ``there is no money'' and ``it is not going to be easy to turn this around.'' As of Jan. 1, Messi could negotiate with other clubs as his contract with Barcelona is set to expire in June. In August, Messi stunned Barcelona by telling the club he wanted to leave following a season without titles that ended in a humiliating 8-2 defeat to Bayern Munich. The club said no, and Messi backed down saying that he could not take his club to court.
