£275million Messi is considering to LEAVE Barcelona
Manchester City’s moneymen have met with Lionel Messi’s representatives to discuss a potential world-record transfer.
The Barcelona star is “seriously considering” leaving the club he has been with since a child.
Man. City would have to meet Messi’s £275million buy-out clause to make it happen. But they want to make it happen and can make the cash available.
The meeting took place last week in a Barcelona restaurant.
Messi, 30, agreed a new four-year contract with Barca last month which would have made him the highest paid player on the planet, but the deal is yet to be signed.
Pep Guardiola is convinced a reunion with his former player will turn his team from also rans into world beaters.
Barcelona’s transfer meltdown, in which they’ve lost superstar Neymar to PSG and replaced him with Spurs reject Paulinho is said to have played a major role in Messi’s decision to consider offers.
