Former Manchester City manager Sven Goran Eriksson has revealed that he will be delighted to see Lionel Messi play alongside Erling Haaland at the Etihad Stadium.
The 35-year-old’s current contract with PSG will expire at the end of the season.
However, Eriksson believes Messi won’t turn down a reunion with Guardiola, adding that it would be great for the Argentina captain to play alongside Man City goal machine Erling Haaland at the Premier League champions.
“I wished Argentina to win the World Cup only because of Lionel Messi, he deserved it. I don’t know what will happen to Messi, but if he continues to play as he did in the World Cup, he’s still one of the best,” Eriksson told OLBG.
“Pep Guardiola knows Lionel Messi very well, so I can’t imagine he would say no to that transfer. It would be great for him to play in the Premier League, especially with Erling Haaland in front of him, but I can’t see it happening
