Vincent Kompany Calls Pep Guardiola Trying to Bring Messi to Manchester City

DBasia.news – Manchester City legend Vincent Kompany also commented on the issue of the transfer of Lionel Messi. Kompany said Pep Guardiola is trying to bring in the Barcelona star.

Lionel Messi decided to leave Barcelona in the summer of 2020. The superstar was no longer at home at Camp Nou after the problems that hit. As well as difficulty winning titles, Barcelona are also experiencing internal problems.

Manchester City are among the clubs looking to get La Pulga’s signature. In fact, The Citizens are said to be at the top because of their high financial strength and Pep Guardiola.

Vincent Kompany believes Pep Guardiola and Lionel Messi still have a good relationship. This situation will make it easier for Man City to hook La Pulga.

“It would be great for Manchester City to have a player like Lionel Messi. He can help them take the next step to become champions of the Champions League,” said Kompany as reported by the Daily Mail.

“I know Pep Guardiola’s way of thinking. So, I predict they both still have a good relationship,” said the legend.

“If Lionel Messi decides to leave Barcelona, I can only respect his decision.”

Kompany could not hide the transter’s desire to happen. Kompany can’t wait to see La Pulga wearing The Citizens jersey.

“Let’s be clear, as a Man City supporter, I want Lionel Messi to come. I can imagine Guardiola and Messi still have each other’s phone numbers. So they can communicate.”

Currently, Barcelona’s attitude still refuses to give the green light for Lionel Messi to leave. Barca are only willing to let Messi go if an offer comes in according to the attacker’s release clause which reaches 700 million euros.
