Tuttosport claims that the Italian giants are now interested in Ronaldo’s longtime rival Lionel Messi.
Marco Tronchetti Provera, the CEO of Pirelli, fueled the rumour in an interview when he said the club owners were looking for a major signing.
He said: “I hope that Suning, once Financial Fair Play will allow it, can make a huge signing.
“Messi? How can you say no to Messi?”
As interesting as this development might be for football, it is very unlikely that the deal falls through.
Messi at 31 is Barcelona’s star player and the Spanish side will understandably be unwilling to let him go.
Messi also recently signed a new deal with Barcelona until the end of the 2020-21 season complete with the huge buy-out clause.
