Reports from Spain state that Messi might join City with a Real Madrid superstar
According to Diaro GOL, Lionel Messi might join forces with Isco of Real Madrid at the Etihad Stadium. The Spanish midfielder is widely admired around the world due to his creative style of play and is a player that Pep Guardiola has always spoken highly of.
Isco’s game time at the Santiago Bernabeu has reduced over the last two seasons and the former Malaga man is now ready to leave the bench of Real for more game-time. At the age of 28, Isco could possibly sign for City while at his peak and could form a deadly midfield duo alongside Kevin de Bruyne that could benefit Messi and Aguero.
Messi at 33, is willing to step out of his comfort zone after spending his entire career at the Camp Nou. A move to Manchester City might see Messi end his career on a high note as the Argentine forward could win the prestigious Premier League title along with the Champions League.
