Barca, who are already close to lifting La Liga title, are also working with one eye on next season. They are aiming to bring Messi back as well as making a number of changes to different positions in the squad.

One of the names that could be mentioned from now on would be that of Mexx Meerdink, who is only 19 years old. The young player has just won the UEFA Youth League with AZ Alkmaar and did not express his interest in the 'Cule' team.

"The club I would like to play for? Barcelona", the striker openly assured on the 'Khalid&Sophie' programme on the 'BNNVARA' channel.

Meerdink has scored 17 goals and provided two assists in 29 matches (between AZK Alkmaar, AZK Alkmaar U19 and Jong AZ -filial). In terms of minutes, a total of 1576'.

This Dutch pearl looks set to be one of the big names on the international scene in a few years' time.
