Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich is prepared to buy Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi for Pep Guardiola.
El Confidencial says Abramovich wants to bring Pep Guardiola to Chelsea - and is willing to wait for the former Barca coach should he stick to his plans to take a year away from football to live in New York.
The prospect of buying Messi has been tentatively discussed and it's suggested Abramovich would not blink should Guardiola demand the Argentine's signing.
Messi's €250 million buyout clause is within Abramovich's reach and Chelsea's marketing men believe they would make their money back in shirt sales and merchandise.
I hope Guardiola doesn't go to chelsea and i don't think if chelsea could pay for the transfer fee if Messi would want to go.
It would be nice to have Messi here but 250m euros? damn.
I think our line-up of strikers Torres, Hazard and Hulk is more than enough.
Id rather have Chelsea keep RDM
This is absurd.
No player should ever cost that much.
Do it and I will celebrate when chelsea fails miserably.
