Man City are reportedly interested in signing BOTH Lionel Messi and Erling Haaland this summer.
Pep Guardiola is in the market for a new talisman following the news that Sergio Aguero will leave after a glittering ten-year spell at the club.
The Sun report that City will target both superstars once this season is complete.
The Manchester club were heavily linked to Messi last summer when he handed in a transfer request.
The Argentine superstar ended up staying at Barcelona, but his contract expires this summer – with Messi yet to make a decision on his future.
The election of Joan Laporta as manager has increased the chances of the 33-year-old signing a new contract while PSG also remains an option.
The same publication claim that City have not given up of luring Messi to the Etihad, who has not ruled out a move either.
The Times report that Haaland, who has scored a staggering 49 goals in as many appearances for the German club since joining the club in 2019, is City’s first choice to replace Aguero.
Pep Guardiola recently admitted he was a a big fan of the Norway international, who needed just 14 games to become the fastest player to score 20 Champions League goals last month.
City will need to fend off huge competition to sign the 20-year-old, who is attracting interest from Premier League trio Chelsea, Man United, Man City, as well as Spanish giants Real Madrid.
