Nike were prepared to fund it in 2013 so I'd guess Puma would happily throw money at us,

From bad to worse for barca , is messi gonna stay after all this
Sid Lowe was saying on his podcast that he thinks ter Stegen might leave if they don't shape up quickly. He's really underpaid in their wage structure, and he's been delaying signing a new contract and generally been acting unimpressed with the direction of the club.
A Premier League move might give him the exposure in Germany to unseat Neuer in the Germany side as well.
Contract is up in 2021.
If that happened, it would be almost as big a loss as Messi - for all the carrying of a mediocre attack Messi does, ter Stegen bails them out usually 2 or 3 times a game with saves he's got no right to make.

The only player in world football you break any sort of structure for is Messi.
If he joins you really think Sterling or KDB are knocking on Txiki's office asking for a pay rise, not a chance.
Just make sure he has 10 players round him with energy otherwise he'll just appear to be shit ;)

It's just been said in the EL semi that Inter are pursuing Messi.
I don't think they are. It's a bit like the Sneijder to United thing in being more media suggested than real. Their ex-owner used to spout on about how they were going to sign Messi one day and their current owners are highly ambitious, so it's a lot of 2+2 makes 5 stuff over there.It's just been said in the EL semi that Inter are pursuing Messi.

When you say they'd fund it, do you mean they'd have renegotiated their sponsorship upwards significantly, or in another way?

Well you can just see him playing for Conte can't you, and then there's the small matter of FFP, and then also Messi pissing his sides at the mere suggestion.I don't think they are.

Their Chinese owners projected Messi onto the Duomo in Milan as part of some corporate thing, and Messi and his dad just bought penthouses in Milan as part of a tax thing (they have Italian passports and Italy are introducing some tax incentives to Italians living abroad to bring money into the country)

As soon as all the silly rumours started, I was going to post that Messi would be a Milan club type signing. Would’ve included Juve but the ageing show pony berth is taken.Messi to Inter isn't daft as it sounds.
