Mon Dec 31, 2012 1:02 pm

Barcelona have recieved a £205 MILLION bid for Lionel Messi from Russian club Anzhi Makhachkala. The player turned down a reported £460,000 PER WEEK to sign a new long-term deal with the Catalan club.

Jesus :shock:

The reason they announced it was because Barcelona have a clause in Messi's contract that
only bids over £200m can be considered. I bet they had a shock when this came in :lol: :lol:

But no way would Messi leave Barca
