Real Madrid still keen on £100M Barcelona whiz Messi.

Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon hasn't given up his interest in Barcelona superkid Lionel Messi.

The Argentine whiz was a target for Real presidential candidates before Calderon's election victory over the summer.

DiarioSport says sources close to Calderon insist he hasn't shelved plans to prise Messi away from the Nou Camp and would even consider to paying his £100 million buyout clause should the youngster indicate he's ready to quit Barca.
