Manchester City are once again making a comeback for Leo Messi. The Spanish media have reported that the English club will try to bring the Argentinean to Etihad Stadium in January. Its transfer is expected to pay an exorbitant 358 million euros.
City wants to use the fact that Barcelona have not extended Messi's contract expiring in June. The problem is at least strange, because the club in July informed on Twitter that the Argentinian has signed a new contract until 2021. However, the journalists questioned the news and wrote that Messi did not sign any documents.
Manchester owners are ready to invest in the deal for more than 400 million euros. 358 would be the same amount of transfer, the remainder - contract, bonus and bonuses offered to Messi.
"As" also stresses that it is possible that the 30-year-old will move to England for free. That may be the case if you do not agree with Barcelona on a new contract.
The Argentine is an icon of Barcelona. For a club from the capital of Catalonia has been playing since 2004. So far, he has played in 594 games, winning 521 goals.
