Paris Saint-Germain boss Mauricio Pochettino has given a major hint over his plans to sign Lionel Messi this month.
The Ligue 1 giants are the front runners to secure a free transfer deal for Messi following the Argentinian’s explosive departure from the Camp Nou in recent days.
Despite initial optimism over a u-turn from La Liga on their refusal to ratify Messi’s contract, due to Barcelona‘s financial issues, the 34-year-old has now left the club.
PSG are rumoured to be already putting together a salary package, which includes a three year contract, with reports from ESPN claiming Pochettino has said that a deal is a ‘possibility’.
Messi’s representatives, including his father Jorge, are due to travel to Paris on Monday for talks with Pochettino and the PSG hierarchy.
