Messi to PSG: Herrera doubts French champions could sign Barcelona star due to FFP

Rumours of Paris Saint-Germain plotting an approach for Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi continue to do the rounds, but Ander Herrera believes Financial Fair Play will present a sizeable stumbling block to any deal.

With the six-time Ballon d’Or winner continuing to run down his contract at Camp Nou, it could be that he drops into the free agent pool this summer.

PSG are one of the few clubs that could match the Argentine’s sporting and financial ambition, but Herrera doubts that even they could put an agreement in place that would allow them to land an all-time great while adhering to regulations regarding cost management.
