Betting in the UK sees Leo Messi as Manchester City's imminent signing after the Argentine has communicated to FC Barcelona his immediate desire to leave the Camp Nou, as reported by the Spanish sports press. That the fate of ‘La Pulga’ is the “skyblues” with Pep Guardiola is the most prominent in Betfair bets.
Your arrival at the City is paid at only € 2.50 per euro wagered, a low odds that indicate a large amount of bets in favor of this possibility, Without ruling out two options that in recent hours have gained weight in the forecasts: Neymar's PSG and Lautaro's Inter Milan. Finishing with the Brazilian in the runner-up in Europe is paid at € 4 per euro bet. His compatriot Lautaro's arrival at Inter has the same quota.
Difficult his signing with Cristiano
More complicated, Betfair bettors believe, is for Messi to join Cristiano Ronaldo at Juventus, this option trading at € 5 per euro wagered, something more feasible, although not much, than his arrival at United (odds 7.5), Liverpool (odds 15.0) or Bayern Munich (odds 36.0). The forecasts do not see him in any MLS club (13.0) and even less of a return to an Argentine club (26.0).
The utopia of ending up at Real Madrid
The list of options is wide, and resounding in one conclusion: Leo Messi will not sign for Real Madrid.
