LONDON – Lionel Messi has reportedly told Pep Guardiola that he will join Manchester City this summer, but Barcelona Manchester United have begun negotiations with argentine agent.
On Tuesday he revealed that the legend of Barca Messi, who has spent his entire career at Camp Nou, told the club that he sought to move to new pastures because he was tired of the existing regime.
This sparked rumours about his next destination and, for the Spanish media outlet Radio Catalunya, Messi has already contacted former chief Guardiola about a transfer to Etihad.
The communication has taken place in recent days on a imaginable encounter between the two, after their illustrious good fortune in combination between 2008-2012 in Barcelona.
Messi and Guardiola have won two Champions League titles and three La Liga titles at a time when the Argentine striker has the most productive player in the world.
However, a separate spanish SPORT report insists that Manchester Untied and PSG have already driven to point out the 33-year-old.
The report notes that Messi would be ahead of his former teammate Neymar, as well as Kylian Mbappé, the Ligue 1 champions, who lost in Sunday’s Champions League final to Bayern Munich.
Messi’s arrival would shape a sensational duo before 3 at parc des Princes, as they watch for extra spend in Europe next season.
In addition, United has reportedly contacted Messi’s representatives, adding his father and agent Jorge, such as the Serie A team, Inter Milan.
Both clubs have the monetary ability to facilitate Messi’s possible arrival, depending on whether the Barca’s employer can leave with a loose move or not.
Messi believes that a clause in his contract that allows him to leave for things remains in force because the season ended in August and May because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Barcelona said the deadline for Messi to go loose had passed in June and would challenge the player’s argument that the deadline was replaced when the season was reorganized after the blockade.
