Lionel Messi | Joins Inter Miami (pg4111)

[malg]

If Messi does come to us then we would need a bigger stadium than the 61,000 planned!

He must be getting bored at Barca now surely. Hes won everything over there upteen times. Time for a new challenge i reckon. Come join the revolution!

Is that a lovebite?

For me it's a categorical no. The only sense in it is commercial.

If the quote I read from Pellers yesterday is real ( "David Silva doesn't have the reputation he deserves as he has not played for clubs like Real/Barca" ) I get a feeling that Merlin will be part of any deal for Messi.

Or maybe he was saying Silva is as good as Messi, but doesn't get the credit

I reckon we would never worry about empty seats ever again if we bought this fella ....

What about empty pockets?

Make it back in revenue from all our full seats ;)

City are the only natural choice for Lionel – he's a patriotic lad, and as our kit is the same colour as the Argentinian national flag then it's a no-brainer ;)

Yes, that's a great negotiating maneuver from Manuel there. Really pushing Silva's price up to the big Spanish pair.

Pellegrini has given the biggest hint that the club are interested in signing Messi.
He's quoted as saying that the club could afford his transfer but nothing concrete is in place.

Can anyone post the Sun's £480m article on here? i refuse to subscribe to The Sunts .... but would like to laff at the clown journalism.

2 different articles with the express regards messi...1 saying the rags are after him and the other saying we are in for him,one says his release clause is £195 million(rags article) and the other says it's £210 million(us)...how the fuck does the same paper get completely different fees?

Do you really need to ask?





To the agenda thread!

Where I do think we will be in for messi in the summer! Does anyone think that pellers is trying to upset the barca camp before our upcoming champions league match? Very unlike pellers to speak about another teams player regarding a possible transfer!

Where the hell have they pulled that figure from? Considering we have to sell players just to balance the books for the Bony transfer how do they think we can then spend £480 Million on Messi? Another useless Sun article.

Its 150 million transfer fee and the rest is wages which wouldn't come in to ffp straight away id say we would havd to raise some where near 90 million to be able to stay within ffp rules! But this would quite easy the would renegotiate all there current sponsorship deals player sales new shirt sales for messi! Basically messi would cover his transfer fee and wages with the amount of exposure he would give city everybody would want a bit of city!

Next financial year we should be showing a minimum net profit of £50m or thereabouts and at least that every year from now on. We can also add about £20m to that for allowable FFP expenses. So with the allowable FFP loss we've got around £75m to play with and that's before any revenue that Messi brings in. £150m transfer fee and £20m a year wages comes to an annual cost of £50m.

I am pretty sure he had more than one contract renewal.
