Wilfried Bony for £32 million, and now Lionel Messi for £480 million?!
The day after Manchester City splashed out a massive amount of money – yet again – to sign Ivory Coast international Bony form Swansea, The Sun float the never-gonna-happen story that Lionel Messi could leave FC Barcelona for the Etihad.
Fuelled by days of speculation that all is not right for Messi at the Camp Nou, the red-top twists Manuel Pellegrini’s latest comments in a presser to claim the Argentine could possibly join the Sky Blues.
For the record, the Chilean manager actually said:
It is normal that clubs with the capacity to buy are linked with the best players on the market. Often these rumours come from personal interests, and not from the club. There is nothing in that way concrete in this case.
Right. Moving on…
