Lionel Messi wants to leave Barcelona.
This is the news that all the world media are giving, news that has shocked Barcelona.
Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City are reportedly the number one candidate to sign the 33-year-old and Red Devils legend Wayne Rooney has welcomed Messi’s possible arrival in England.
“I know he’s getting older, but there has never been a player like him.” Rooney told talkSPORT.
“Messi has everything – he can create chances for goals, he can score goals, he can lead the game, he is the best of all time.”
“He is one of the only players I have admired.”
“He and Cristiano Ronaldo have set a standard that I think we will not see again like this, Messi is just another level.”
“He can come to the Premier League and be immediately named player of the year, one million percent. “If he is surrounded by players like Bruno Fernandes or Kevin De Bruyne, he could win the Golden Ball for the seventh time in his career.”
