“All roads lead to Manchester City”: this is a name used today at TyC Sports.
The Argentine television channel was the first to say that Lionel Messi had asked to leave Barcelona, and now broadcasts that Pep Guardiola’s team is the ultimate destination for him.
The account of its online page contains statements from England and Spain regarding contacts with the Premier League, and includes some of the club’s tweets as if they were laughing at an advertisement.
However, this story was broadcast live on television, where Messi’s future was discussed, and now claims that the player is “halfway” before moving to Manchester City.

Meanwhile, RAC1 (via Mundo Deportivo) brings some main points about Lionel Messi’s discussions with Manchester City.
They say the player has asked the club for a guarantee that Pep Guardiola will pass his current contract, which expires in 2021.
There have been several claims that Messi has been in contact with the Catalan technician, so it is unexpected that he needs to be sure that he will be trained through him in England.
