Barcelona presidential candidate expects Lionel Messi to join Manchester City

Barcelona presidential candidate Toni Freixa has spoken out on Lionel Messi's potential move to Manchester City. Messi has expressed a desire to leave the La Liga side. Since the news broke, the Barcelona star has been linked with several top clubs including Manchester City, Manchester United, PSG, Inter Milan and Bayern Munich. “I think a move to Man City is likely,” Freixa told Goal. “With Pep, Messi experienced his most brilliant years in Barcelona. It would only be logical if both of them worked together again. City, like almost all English clubs, also has the financial means to build a team that can win anything. “In life everything comes to an end at some point, and even if there will no longer be a player like Messi, his departure would be a chance for Barca to develop into a team that is less dependent on a single player. “Messi's influence on Barca's game has been immense in recent years. The style of play was designed to give him the ball and hope that he would do something magical with it. Without him, the collective would be more in demand again. That can also be liberating.” source - Manchester Evening News Join us on Telegram
