Messi's replacement

Ever since James Rodriguez moved to Bayern Munich, he has been constantly linked with a move to the Premier League. While it is almost certain that he will officially leave Real Madrid by the end of this season – he is currently on loan at Bayern – where he ends up is still uncertain.

According to Don Balon, James Rodriguez is torn between staying in Germany or join Manchester United. He is one of the players that wants to see the back of Niko Kovac, who has started his career with Bayern quite badly.

Meanwhile, in another report from the same outlet – and this is the rumour of the day – Lionel Messi has already decided that the 2019-2020 season will be his last at Barcelona.

So he could either go to the MLS or rejoin his childhood club Newell’s. Barcelona, meanwhile, have already eyed his replacement and it is none other than Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah.
