Manchester City FC is reportedly considering the signing of Barcelona's star midfielder, Lionel Messi, as a replacement for their injured star, Sergio Busquets. The move has been in the works since last summer and was initially rumoured to be linked with Real Madrid but ultimately fell through.

Barcelona's midfield is one of the most talented units in Europe, and it would be a significant boost for City if they were able to sign Messi. However, there have also been concerns about his fitness and whether he will be available for a long-term contract at the club.

Despite these concerns, there is still plenty of interest in the transfer. Some reports suggest that Manchester City could even pay a hefty fee for Messi's services, potentially making him one of the biggest signings of the summer.

However, it remains to be seen how much the move will cost and how successful it will be for City. If Messi is indeed ready to join them, he may well be one of the biggest names on the list of targets for the club this summer. Time will tell whether or not he can make a positive impact in the Premier League and help City climb up the table.
