The four-time world footballer of the year,
Lionel Messi, has reportedly indicated his
willingness to leave the Catalan club,
Barcelona, where he has played for fourteen
years.

have a feel of the English Premier League
(EPL) where Chelsea, Manchester United
and Manchester City have all shown interest
to land the 28-tear-old player.

Also, it was reported that quite a number of
Lionel Messi’s friends have tried to woo the
player to come to England.
Messi’s readiness to leave Barca has also
allegedly been boosted by the tax-mess he
and his father are currently having in
Catalonia.
Messi and his father Jorge are facing trial
over an alleged tax fraud of £3.1m.
However, the Barcelona player’s current
contract with Barcelona will expire in June
2018 buy has a buy-out-clause of €250million
in it.
Messi is currently battling with a knee-
ligament injury which will keep him out of
action for some time.
The player who has refused to put a
timescale on his return said: “I am improving
every day without setting myself any targets. I
have always said that I don’t set myself any
dates because it isn’t up to me.

“As much as I would like to play tomorrow, the
doctors wouldn’t let me. When they tell me
that I have recovered completely will be the
time that I will make my return onto the pitch.”
Meanwhile, FIFA has announced the 23 man
list for the coveted 2015 Ballon D’Or with
Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo and
Barcelona’s Lionel Messi the headline
names. |
