Er..what?
Lionel Messi was allegedly interested in a shock transfer to Arsenal before he signed a new contract with Barcelona just two months ago.
The Argentine superstar eventually penned his extension with Barca in May having previously rejected fresh terms, following a row over bonus payments.
And Spanish newspaper Vozpopuli, who broke the news of Arsenal’s deal for Alexis Sanchez, says Messi was seriously considering a switch to the Emirates before sorting out an arrangement to stay at the Nou Camp.
The paper claims that Messi had spoken to close friend Cesc Fabregas about his time at Arsenal, and also sounded out other acquaintances about a switch to London.
He had apparently already instructed his agent to discuss with the Gunners whether a transfer could realistically take place, before Barca quickly moved to sort out his future.
Messi had an opportunity to move to Arsenal before joining Barcelona’s academy as a kid, and he is said to be a huge admirer of Arsene Wenger and his methods.

I don't care for Bilbao, mainly because when I was about 13 or so I had a Championship Manager with foreign leagues for the first time ever. They were the first team I went and it took me almost 2 hours to work out why the board seemingly wouldn't allow me to sign anybody. It was as annoyed as I've ever been.7/22/2014 2:46:23 PM -

Vorm deal covers a few bases, Friedel is done next year, if anyone comes offering silly money for Lloris next year Vorm can step up, for 5m seems a good bit of business7/22/2014 2:55:46 PM -
