It would be one of those insane moments that we would all be checking that it isn't 1st of April if you put that report out. 🤣🤣🤣

Apparently Messi was recently asked why he's interested in becoming a Claret and his reply was

"Because we're Burnley, not Barcelona".

We can't be signing that Argentine lad, Andy Murray has it on good authority that he's going to Hibs. :)

Regarding Messi, what's the sporting challenge of going to Manchester City or PSG? Going to Burnley on Burnley wages (he doesn't need the money) represents a chance to really measure his career, playing for Burnley with the idea of winning the 20-21 PL title.

It's the best thing he could do.

It 's a good steppng stone to player manager, whether Dyche might feel threatened in that respect, who knows.

It's also would be an anti-greed virtual signal for taking regular wages, he could even give to charity, after all how many Wetherspoons cooked breakfasts can a small bloke like that, eat?

Don't worry, if Messi was Spanish, Dyche would only need to serve up a Spanish omelette, a "tortilla de patatas" which isn't far off. However, with Messi being Argentinian, he'd probably need to whip out the meat ( :shock: ) for a hearty stew.

i read a piece about 3 years ago where it said messi liked playing football when it rained, he also said he liked traditional local foods.
That to me is enough to make me think Burnley is in his sights, Oddies bakery and guaranteed to be p*****g it down weather, its not beyond reason he might arrive here shortly.
