Pep Guardiola Wants Argentina Star in EPL To Revive Fortunes

With nine losses, two ties, and just one victory in their last 12 games, Manchester City is in a

difficult situation.

Before their EFL Cup Round of 16 match against Tottenham, Pep Guardiola’s team was playing brilliantly, then all of a sudden, their momentum vanished.

To compensate for Rodri’s injury, the Man City manager appears to have come up with a backup

plan. He seems content with Ilkay Gundogan playing defensive midfield, though, so it doesn’t seem

like he is looking for a replacement. Guardiola reportedly wants to sign Argentine sensation Lionel

Messi during the winter transfer window, according to Tuttosport. Guardiola and Messi have a long history together from their heyday at Barcelona. He was heavily linked to a transfer to the City in

2020, but plans didn’t work out.

According to reports, Pep wants to assist his club get back on track as the second half of the season draws near by bringing in Messi on a six-month loan. According to reports, co-owner David Beckham has given his consent for the 37-year-old, who is presently with Inter Miami, to make the move and won’t obstruct it. Messi has played in 39 games since joining Miami in July 2023, tallying 34 goals, dishing out 18 assists, and taking home two major titles.

In his sixteen-year-old senior professional managerial career, Guardiola is currently experiencing

his worst slump. A talented squad is having a lot of trouble getting back on track, so if Messi decides

to join, he will have a tremendous job ahead of him. He would have to show himself once again in Europe, in the most competitive league in the world, at the age of 37 and nearing the conclusion of

his career. Messi scored 27 goals in 36 outings against the Premier League’s top six during his best.

But if he relocates to England, we’ll have to see if he can replicate it once more.
