Manchester United have already made two approaches in recent weeks for Lionel Messi. as they try to lure the Barcelona superstar to Old Trafford, according to the Daily Mail.
United are set to explore a move for the five-time Ballon d'Or winner, and try to bring him to the Premier League in a deal which will no doubt smash the current world record £85 million that Real Madrid paid to get Gareth Bale.
However, a move would be more likely next summer, when Jose Mourinho will have hopefully guided United into the 2017/18 Champions League.
Messi's current deal with the Spanish champions is set to expire in 2018 and it has emerged that he will require certain assurances if he is to remain at Barcelona.
Furthermore, sources close to the player claim that he is increasingly 'frustrated and hurt' by all of the media criticism in Spain surrounding his tax evasion legal case.
This would definitely be one of, if not THE greatest signing in history.
