What's new

Lionel Messi to Chelsea?

i actually wouldnt be surpised if this ended up with a new president and koeman being replaced before je has even taken a training session, such is the power messi holds at the club.

If he does go, i would love to see him link up with Ronaldo at Juve, it would be a fantastic end to an era dominated by both players, especially if they won a champions league together.

Juve can't pay them both. 

PSG might.

He could just threaten to walk for free next summer though, he has a clause that allows him to leave for free for a period each summer. That expired in june, so whilst they can dig their heels in now, they would probably take a decent fee now, rather than nothing next summer.

If Pep can convince the Man City owners to go all in for Messi that would be his best option. I doubt that Inter can pay for Messi.

Not quite.. if the club consent its a 700 million euro buy out; his contract doesn't end until June 2021

Incorrect. 

He can leave on a free now. He had a clause in his contract and it expires at the end of each season. The season has just ended which is why he put the paperwork in now. 

His clause extended because the season extended. June isn't the date. This is reported on bbc sport 

There is 0 fee.

However I do think he will stay.

It seems like it always pops up since he had this put I his contract. I feel like he’s just trying to get the the manager fired since he pretty much told Suarez to piss off. 

 
Well if you could sign him you would be mad not to. Amazing player and the merch would help pay his fee likely.

Though this is all pie in the sky imo. He is a Barca boy and likely will only leave to retire in Argentina.

 
It’s Messi so you couldn’t say no if there was even a chance, but realistically it’s going to be City if it’s England.

bo**ocks, I'd rather we knock them out of the Champions League and ruin their fairytale with Mason "Messinaldo" Mount scoring the winner

 
Ah why not

Kante----Havertz

Zyiech----Messi----Pulisic

Werner

Lol...back to reality.

Messi would have the same problem here that he has in his current team and he will end up walking around and being sad about our defense. Maybe Dave and Willy could cheer him up...

Not really sure how he fits into any big side other than psg. 

He doesnt press at all anymore, so he would most probaly have to play as a false 9. 

City have aguero, who i dont see leaving or playing second fiddle, and if he played deeper, that could make them soft in the middle. Just doesnt seem a natural fit with how Pep has built that squad.

Maybe in a 2 with Lukaku at inter could work in a swap for lautaro.

I think you need to build around messi to get the best out of him, which means covering for his flaws. There arent many teams in a position to do that for a player that is 32. 

Cant see him ending up here, due to fit and wages. It would be great to see him week in week out here though.

Are you on crack now?

 
If he did sign you know he’d turn into a shrunken Argentinian version of Emile Heskey almost overnight! Would complete the treble to go with Sheva and Torres.

Lets do it.

 
He’s not going anywhere. Barca will drag this into the courts to make Messi look bad. By that time, he’ll be 34
