Lionel Messi’s future remains the subject of speculation, but the captain’s chances of trading Barcelona for Manchester City may be shrinking.
The 33-year-old has been linked to Pep Guardiola’s side and Paris Saint-Germain, but BBC Sport reports that City are “distancing themselves from ties” with the forward.
The report says a club source has denied that “City has submitted a revised offer by Messi” and also says that “no offers have been made” and “there are currently no talks.”
Sky Sports is running a similar report and believes they have been told by a city source that “no offers have been made, neither in the summer nor since, and there are no conversations.
The city’s look is ready for another trophy-laden season. After a slow start, Guardiola’s team is 10 points clear in the Premier League, the EFL Cup final and still in contention in the FA Cup and Champions League.
The club is also expected to spend a lot again in the summer to bring in a replacement for Sergio Agüero. Players like Harry Kane, Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappé have been linked with City and with Messi.
The PSG look is also ready for an interesting summer. Mbappé’s future remains a bit uncertain, as he has not yet extended his contract that expires in 2022. If the forward decides he wants to leave, he will certainly not be short of offers.
Neymar will also be out of contract next year, but it was thought that he would be close to a new four-year contract with the Ligue 1 team. It is unclear if PSG could afford to bring in Messi if Neymar and Mbappé extend. your current arrangements at the Parc des Princes.
