The player who would leave Man City so that Guardiola fulfills his dream of coaching Messi
There are still several months left for the end of this season in Europe and from France they indicate that everything would be decided in the future of Lionel Messi. According to the French press, the captain of the Argentine team will leave in mid-2023, after the elimination from the Champions League. In this context, Manchester City could go for the ‘Flea’ and say goodbye to a player as long as Pep Guardiola fulfills the dream of directing the top winner of the Ballon d’Or (7) again.
With financial control attentive to each movement, Manchester City needs to get rid of players to be able to reunite the Spanish coach with the former FC Barcelona player. Although Messi’s departure from PSG is not guaranteed, everything would indicate that he will not continue in Ligue 1 and the ‘citizen’ team could go for Leo, since Guardiola always expressed his desire to train him once again.
In this way, Ilkay Gündogan, who ends his contract in June 2023, would definitely say goodbye to the club. The German earns approximately 10 million euros a year, according to the ‘Salary Sport’ portal, and his farewell would further open the economic cushion for City to hire the winner of the last World Cup, where he scored seven goals and provided three assists.
The other player who can leave Manchester City in a surprising way:
The French media ‘RMC Sport’ detailed that PSG will go for Erling Haaland at the end of the 2022-2023 campaign. The Parisians would be willing to pay 200 million euros to Manchester City for the Norwegian. With the incredible amount, the English squad would have no problem offering Messi a juicy one-year contract, since the man from Rosario hopes to play in Europe until 2024 and close his career in the United States or Argentina after the next Copa América.
