“We are talking about fantasy football, a situation that Inter Milan cannot achieve for various reasons,” Conte said as reported by France 24.

Lionel Messi is rumored to want to leave Barcelona. Messi stopped the process of a renewed contract proposed by Barca.

“I don’t think there is anyone in the world who does not want Lionel Messi. However, he is really far from what we are building,” added the former Chelsea tactician.

Antonio Conte’s statement was supported by Inter Milan CEO, Giuseppe Marotta. According to him, La Pulga is not a player on Nerazzurri’s list.

“Messi is not our goal and I don’t think he wants to leave Barceloa,” Marotta stated.
