REPORT: Man City Plotting January Messi Bid
Pep Guardiola's Manchester City are reportedly plotting a move to bring Lionel Messi to the club when the transfer window reopens.
Manchester City are considering an offer to prise Lionel Messi from Barcelona in January, according to the Daily Star.
Messi handed in a transfer request at the start of the season and the Barca captain was tipped to join City before opting to remain at Camp Nou.
Pep Guardiola's City, however, have not given up on Messi as they eye a £15million ($18.7m / €16m) bid for the six-time Ballon d'Or winner – who was also linked to Juventus, Inter and Paris Saint-Germain previously.
