Lionel Messi’s contract may run out soon, but Barcelona are confident that their star striker will put pen to paper. Although there are a few details that need to be ironed out, the Blaugrana feel it’s merely a matter of time before an extension is done and dusted.
However, their confidence is about to be tested. As written by AS (citing Sky Sports), the Argentine is set to receive a mega-money bid from China – and we mean mega-money.
According to the report, Hebei China Fortune are plotting a €500m bid – after tax – for the five-time Ballon d’Or winner over five years. If La Pulga agrees to a switch, he would be joining several high-profile players to quit Europe for far-east Asia.
The club, founded only six years back, are spending big to achieve high ambitions. They signed Ezequiel Lavezzi before appointing former Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini as their manager.
However, the odds are against Hebei even if they were to make a move, the reason being Messi has stated many times before that he wishes to return to Newell’s Old Boys once he leaves Camp Nou.
