British media have been publicizing the interest of Manchester City in signing the best player in the history of football ever since Spanish media talked about the possibility that Messi might refuse to renew his contract with FC Barcelona.
The Daily Mirror reported Sunday that the British Manchester City is ready to pay Barcelona £100 million ($124 million) in exchange of Messi. Under this scenario, the world’s best player for five times would get a weekly payment of £500,000 (roughly $624,000), which translates into a yearly salary of $32 million.
The offer is the highest ever made in the history of football and may separate Messi from the team with which he won 5 FIFA Ballon d’Or awards and 30 titles, including four Champions League titles. ,
If the 29-year-old Argentinian football superstar does not renew his contract with FC Barcelona this summer and accepts Manchester City’s colossal offer, he will be the most expensive player in history, ahead of the current most expensive footballer, Paul Pogba (€105 million).
