On Friday, a news report said that Argentine Lionel Messi, the Barcelona soccer player, had told Pep Guardiola, the Manchester City coach, a few days ago, of his desire to leave Barcelona.
The British newspaper "The Times" added that Guardiola, who was Messi's coach for four years in Barcelona, told the player that he would speak with Manchester City's owners about the possibility of contracting him.
The newspaper "The Times" reported that this constitutes a new indication that Manchester City is the closest candidate to the "33-year-old Argentine" star.
The report added that Ferran Soriano, the chief executive of Manchester City, is already in Catalonia, where he plans to speak to Lionel Messi's father, Georgi, over the next week.
