There was speculation that Messi would leave Barcelona for Manchester City a year before he actually did.
Lionel Messi has already expressed optimism about a potential combination with Cristiano Ronaldo on the field. Messi said the Portuguese star was one of the best in the business at what he does best: scoring goals.
