It has come to our attention here at sporty bro's that Lionel Messi may be on the move. As time ticks, more and more rumors about the electric goal scoring Argentinian surface around the soccer world. Messi, who currently plays for FC Barcelona has been targeted by the power dominant soccer club, Manchester United. Manchester just wrapped up a 750 million dollars deal with Adidas which virtually allows them to sign anyone on this planet.

This recent million dollar deal with Adidas also gives Manchester United the opportunity not only to sign Messi but also Juventus's young 21 year-old star midfielder Paul Pogba. Juventus stated that if the money is right then they aren't afraid to ship him out and replace him with other midfielders. Although these speculations may surface, Pogba may not be transferred until June. 

Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu says Lionel Messi's recent superb performances show he is happy with his club now and just focusing on winning trophies. Recent weeks have brought much speculation about Messi's future, especially as the Argentine himself has regularly said that he was not sure where he would be playing next season, while often adding that he would probably stay at Barcelona long-term.

Even with all of the optimism that Lionel Messi will stay, Messi and the Coach Luis Enrique had numerous  fallout with each other that are leaning to the side of Messi wanting to leave. When you have a star as big as Messi, the relationship with the coach must be strong so that the team could be on the same page. As of right now Messi will continue to play for Barcelona but come June time, he could be shipped else where.
