It looks as though the man widely considered to be the world’s top footballer is looking to leave his longtime home of Barcelona to seek greener pastures elsewhere. With a brand new manager coming into the club having explained to Lionel Messi that he would not have the influence he once had amongst the management of the team, the Argentinian has reportedly handed in a transfer request.

Lionel Messi’s odds to leave Barcelona are offering up some really good value for punters who can get it right this time. It looks as though he genuinely does want to leave and is not merely using this as an excuse to drive up a price in his negotiations for a new contract.
After their disappointing 8-2 Champions League loss to eventual winners Bayern Munich, it looks as though it’s the end of an era at Camp Nou and with the amount of money being thrown around this summer by a lot of top teams, Lionel Messi could wind up being a crucial factor in a lot of other teams plans as they go forward into the new season.
As it currently stands, the bookmakers have Lionel Messi’s odds to stay at Barcelona available around a ⅚ price and it looks as though Manchester City are in pole position to sign the Argentinian should he decide to leave the club. That’s a fair price on Messi to stay but most will likely be thinking that he is set to head to England or France.
Manchester City’s odds to sign Lionel Messi can be backed around 8/11 with several top bookmakers and they may face some competition from the red side of Manchester though United are trading as high as 25/1 to secure Messi’s signature (though there are some books offering as low as 14s).
Inter Milan are interesting with bookmakers floating them anywhere from a 4/1 price all the way up to 16/1. Paris Saint Germain has been mentioned as a club that would like to sign Messi and have the money on hand to actually do so. They are priced around a 14/1 shout to sign Lionel Messi. A move to any South American club rewards at 25/1 while an MLS move trades at 50/1 and a move to a Chinese Super League club rewards as high as 66/1.
