Lionel Messi 'would be happy' to join Man City after submitting Barcelona transfer request

“In my point of view it’s the best option,” Montero told Sky Sports News.

“As we have said before, Manchester City because of the money, because of the Premier League situation, because Pep Guardiola and because everything altogether is a good situation for Leo Messi.

“There’s a difference in financial situation between the Premier League and Italy, France or Spain and even Germany, and of course the Premier League is maybe the best league in the world.

“So Leo Messi, Pep Guardiola, Manchester City, Premier League – I think it’s good altogether.

“If I have to bet for one club, obviously I would say Manchester City.
