Will Manchester city buy Messi for £200 million?

Is he the best player to have graced a football pitch? Well, save that argument for friends at a bar on  saturday night. Certainly any team would fancy their chances of tempting lionel Messi to their club


City were reportedly preparing a €200m offer for the 26-year-old, regarded by many as the greatest player to ever grace the game already.
Sky Blues boss Manuel Pellegrini however has played down the chances of a potential move however, brandishing the idea as ‘rumours’.
You can watch Pellegrini discuss the Messi move (or lack of it), here:
