Maybe Man United as an outside bet, I’m sure they have the money and they could probably make more off him marketing their fan base around the world. I could be wrong but seem to remember they made a stupid amount off shirt sales with Ibrahimovic on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Kind of wishing Stoke were in the PL so we can finally see if he can cut it on a wet cold Tuesday night in Stoke. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted August 26, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted August 26, 2020 1 hour ago, VillaChris said: PSG surely the obvious bet here. Still need to win CL so that would add to his legacy (winning CL at two different clubs like Ronaldo), they can give Neymar back to Barca as a sweetner and he can play at 50% in french league (or even not play much at all) and save himself physically for CL matches and Argentina. If he was coming to prem it would be Man. City. PSG would probably be dependant on how much Messi cares about the standard of football he's playing. Sure they were runners up in Champs League but the French league is not a major European league in most people's eyes. If he only cares about money then I'd say it's a good bet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to see him here before he retires It would be just our luck that he joins in the year when fans can’t get into stadiums and we can’t watch him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he only cares about money then I'd say it's a good bet He's desperate to win something with Argentina. Can't see them doing much at 2022 world cup but they're co-hosting Copa America next summer and think they'll be another copa in 2023 so those are his final two chances. In 2014 world cup he actually played in the tournament partly injured from long taxing season in La Liga so I do actually think coming up to his mid 30s he won't mind playing in a league where he can save energy in many league games. Not convinced he'll come to premier league if PSG have serious interest unless he really wants to play for Guardiola again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 for me its funny the media treatment of Messi, if Ronaldo or Neymar was acting this way they would be labelled divas. Messi has done similar dark contract tricks before and never been called out 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 I still suspect Man City will have to offload a player of 2 to cover Messi’s wages and fees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 The BBC gossip column have quoted the times suggesting Messi is currently on £90m a year! Just the £1.7m a week. It does make me laugh how these players show so much loyalty to clubs that pay them more than anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 (edited) It’s Sportsbible so probably BS Quote Lionel Messi has reportedly agreed personal terms with Manchester City, just days after Barcelona's captain asked to leave the club. After nearly two decades at the Camp Nou, the 33-year-old told Barca officials on Tuesday night that he no longer sees his future with the Catalan giants. Reports soon emerged that Messi was 'set on playing for Manchester City' as rumours continued to swirl surrounding his future, but now it appears the Premier League side have made their move.
