Manchester City ready to offer Lionel Messi a two-year contract.
City are said to be keen on sealing a sensational transfer this summer of Lionel Messi.
Messi handed in a transfer request to Barcelona which shocked not only the Catalan side, but the world over.
City are said to be leading favorites of signing the six-time World Player of the Year this summer.
The former Premier League champions believe that the Argentine star will help them fulfil their longstanding ambition of winning the Champions League.
A report by Cadena Ser indicates that City are hoping to be able to land Messi and reunite him with Pep Guardiola in the Premier League.
The same publication report that City’s director of football Txiki Begiristain is already in Barcelona in an attempt to strike a deal for Messi.
Messi remains in a dispute with Barcelona and failed to turn up for the first two days of pre-season as he looks to secure a move away from the club.
The 33-year-old felt that he was free to leave due to a clause in his contract, but LaLiga stated that Messi is still a Barcelona player, with his contract running until June 30, 2021, and any club wishing to sign him must pay his release clause of £630m (£700m).
