Lionel Messi Will Fit In Arsenal Football Club

Former Manchester United attacker, Louis Saha, has identified Arsenal as the Premier League club Paris Saint-Germain forward Lionel Messi will fit in well under manager Mikel Arteta.

Messi is likely to leave PSG at the end of his contract this summer.

The 35-year-old has been linked with a return to his boyhood club Barcelona as well as a move to either Saudi Arabia or Major League Soccer (MLS).

However, Saha believes that Messi could also move to the Premier League and that Arsenal would be the perfect side for him to play for.

“Lionel is a very smart player and can be an Arsenal-type player. He will have to have a manager that realises he is not going to run all day. Are Arsenal the players that can do the Xavi [Hernandez] and [Sergio] Busquets role well?

“With Messi, you will be guaranteed 20-30 goals per season. He will also assist you in a lot of plays. It is about finding the right balance which will help him fit in. But Messi will be exciting to have in the Premier League,” Saha told OLBG (via Daily Star).
