Messi asks for a signing of 80 million (and is on the agenda of Florentino Pérez)

The Argentinian star of the team that trains Ernesto Valverde has put on the table an incorporation that is in the spotlight of the top Real Madrid manager

Leo Messi , the great Argentine star of Barça who trains Ernesto Valverde , has put on the table of Josep Maria Bartomeu a signing valued at 80 million euros . 

And, in addition, it is a player who is also on the agenda of the president of Real Madrid, Florentino Perez , with a view to the coming season. 

The  crack azulgrana know very well that the team needs to shore up their midfield and, perhaps precisely because of that, it is very possible that the name of his request is not exactly a surprise: Miralem Pjanic .

The Bosnian midfielder Juventus is, from the point of view of Messi , one of the best ways to cover the great gap that will leave in the azulgrana template the departure of the club of former captain Andrés Iniesta . 

However, Barca Josep Maria Bartomeu will not have exactly easy to achieve his signing. 

In addition to Florentino Perez , who has seen Pjanic as a great way to cover the possible departures of the entity of the Croatian Luka Modric or the German Toni Kroos , despite the fact that Mourinho's interest in taking him seems to have cooled, there is another great club of Europe willing to bid for him: the Manchester City of Pep Guardiola .

 Juventus, for now, has already made it very clear that it does not intend to sell Pjanic for less than 80 million euros . 

He is a fundamental player in the schemes of Massimiliano Allegri , although his possible signing for Real Madrid could pave the way for Florentino Perez to pass his hand over the face to Barça and Messi and finally close the signing of the Bosnian.
