Eriksson on Messi playing alongside Haaland: “Guardiola knows him extremely well

Posted by

Sven Goran Eriksson, a former manager of Manchester City, expressed his desire for Pep Guardiola to bring Lionel Messi, a forward for Paris Saint-Germain, to the Etihad.

It would be fantastic for the Argentina captain to play with Man City goal machine Erling Haaland at the Premier League champions, according to Eriksson, who also thinks Messi wouldn’t decline a reunion with Guardiola.

Together, Messi and Guardiola have already worked at Barcelona.

The 35-year-current old’s deal with PSG will finish at the conclusion of the current campaign.

Only because Lionel Messi deserved it, I wanted Argentina to win the World Cup. I have no idea what will happen to Messi, but if he keeps up his World Cup form, he will still be among the greatest, Eriksson told OLBG.

Pep Guardiola is quite familiar with Lionel Messi, so I find it difficult to believe that he would object to the trade. Although playing in the Premier League would be ideal for him, especially with Erling Haaland in front of him, I don’t see that happening.
