As the world considers where Lionel Messi will play next season, Manchester City could already have an inside track.
Messi reportedly spoke with Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola on the phone last week to discuss a possible move to the Premier League club this summer, according to Rodrigo Faez and Moises Llorens of ESPN.
The news comes after the forward reportedly told Barcelona he wanted to leave, which the club confirmed, per Llorens and Sam Marsden of ESPN.
Messi had been with Barcelona since he was a teenager, making his first senior appearance in 2004.
