Michael Owen Claims Manchester City is the Ideal Fit for Messi’s Premier League Return
Former Premier League stars Michael Owen, who played for both Liverpool and Manchester United, recently discussed the possibility of Lionel Messi making a move to the English Premier League.
Owen shared his thoughts in an interview with ESPN Argentina, where he explained why he thinks a move to the Premier League would be a good fit for the Argentine football legend.
The former striker emphasized that with Guardiola at the helm, Messi would seamlessly integrate into a team built on precise passing and attacking football.
At 37, Messi’s future has been the subject of much speculation, with numerous reports linking him to a potential Premier League switch.
His contract at Paris Saint-Germain has ended, and he has since moved to Inter Miami, but the idea of him returning to Europe, particularly to England, has continued to fuel rumors.
One such report, from Tuttosport via Hindustan Times, suggests that Guardiola is keen on securing Messi for a six-month loan, hoping to revitalize City’s form after a disappointing series of results.
Manchester City, despite being one of the most successful teams in recent years, has found themselves struggling with just one win in their last 12 matches.
Their latest defeat came at the hands of Aston Villa, who beat them 2-1 in a Premier League clash, adding to their growing list of poor performances.
Owen further mentioned that, despite Messi’s age, his skill set would suit any team in the world.
However, when it comes to Manchester City, he believes there’s no better match.
“It has to be Manchester City,” Owen said. “With Pep, he knows him so well.
They’re a passing team, and Messi is all about that. It would work perfectly.”
Nigerian politician Peter Obi reacts to the viral incident that occurred in Delta State.
It can be noted that Obi is reacting to the clip of a police officer shooting and killing an already restrained suspect.
Obi stated that it was a serious violation and abuse of power “The extrajudicial killing of a young Nigerian in Effurun, Delta State, by a police officer, Mr. Mene Ogidi, is not only barbaric but also a grave violation of the rule of law.
“Over time, human society has moved away from an era when lives could be taken without consequence. Through the evolution of civilisation, a fundamental principle has emerged: no one should be punished or deprived of life without due process and a fair determination of guilt.”
It has been reported that a four-year ban has been placed on Chelsea’s player, Mykhailo Mudryk, for anti-doping violations.
The player appealed in court on February 25 but has now been handed his punishment, which is a four-year ban from football.
It can be recalled that his last appearance on the field was on November 28, 2024.
Manchester United player Benjamin Šeško expresses gratitude to teammate Bruno Fernandes after the team’s 2-1 win against Brentford in the Premier League.
