Former Barcelona defender, Eric Abidal, has insisted that his former teammate, Lionel Messi will stay at Camp Nou for the remainder of his career, adding that the Argentine will not "screw the club" .
Abidal, who called-it quit from active football late last year admitted that his former club had been facing a trying time saw their appeal against their two-window transfer ban rejected and their star forward's future at Camp Nou called into question.
"I know Leo well," said Abidal. "He is a well educated guy, he's not here to screw the club and others. He has character, he respects people.
"As he put it, he's at Barca, but doesn't know what tomorrow brings. That's sport. But yes, I believe he will finish his career at Barcelona and I hope he stays.
"Barca's his home and he has already shown what he can do on the field."
