Lionel Messi to meet with Barcelona hierarchy to discuss future

Manchester City are in the strongest position to sign Messi - if the Argentina star can get out of Barcelona this summer. Lionel Messi has requested a personal meeting with the Barcelona hierarchy to discuss a solution to his transfer request. Messi wants his lawyers present too with the intention of finding a way out of the impasse over his contract clause and a way out of the Nou Camp this summer, as reported in Spain earlier on Friday. Should Messi engineer a move away from the club he joined as a 14-year-old, Manchester City are in the strongest position to swoop in.
