Manchester City stars Yaya Toure and Sergio Aguero have urged Lionel Messi to join them at the Etihad Stadium.
Speculation persists that the Argentine superstar is unsettled at Barcelona, after Messi last week publicly hit out at the club's vice-president Javier Faus, claiming that the director 'knows nothing about football'.
The problem is exacerbated by Messi's recent injury problems and the current holder of Ballon D'Or has not played since early November after breaking down with a hamstring injury against Real Betis.
And speaking to beIN Sport, Toure said: 'If Messi can leave Barca? To come to us, yes! I want to say yes! At Barcelona, there is always one star. One. Two is not possible.
'With the recent injury to Messi and the off-the-field problems that he is having at the moment, and with Neymar gradually getting promoted, it is complicated for him [Messi], for sure.'
While Messi's Argentina strike partner Aguero told the Manchester Evening News: 'Yes, he should come to City. Then we’ll definitely play together! City should buy him
