Look at this logically…
Lets hypothetically say we did manage to sign Messi. If we paid him say £30m a year for 2 years that’s an investment of £60m! £60m for Messi! That’s peanuts, yes on paper it’s a ridiculous wage but had we got him last year he’d of cost £100m just to sign then a wage on top. It’s a no brainier as a free agent.
The PL would also benefit from him joining, the tv views would rocket, bums on seats would increase and sponsorship for the league would increase be it TV rights, or soft drinks etc. Whatever, but sponsors would line up for City and the Premier League.
I’d argue other clubs would benefit too, smaller clubs would sell out as fans want to watch Messi live. It benefits not only us but the league which is why La Liga have let Barça get away with what they have for so long, they benefitted.
Just my opinion of course… Doubt he’d sign for us but financially it makes sense and commercially it does too.

But PSG are reportedly offering him £35m AFTER tax. Therefore his actually wage would be nearer £75m per year. And we don't even know what the success bonuses are on top...
 
perez and agnelli have landed in barcelona,probabl about super league
 
We'd be signing Messi for the sake of signing Messi. There are no long-term benefits to having him here for 2 years, any fans and increased revenue he brings with him will only fuck off with him when he leaves.
He doesn't want to go somewhere to challenge himself or because he actually wants to go there, he will simply go to who will pay him the most.
 
Honestly can't get my head around how PSG can finance the Messi deal. Before all the free transfers this window their wage bill was 414m EUR. A lot of creative accountancy needed.
 
wish now we had the same transfer window rule we had for short time like 2 years ago that our window closes when PL starts not 2 weeks after.

we gonna have Kane and Messi saga still going on on 28/29th of August. 3 more weeks of this lol.

and then we end up with a loan offer for Aguero on the 31st 10pm :))
