Lionel Messi wants Mohamed Salah at Barcelona

Mo Salah and his daughter

It's been only a couple of days since Antoine Griezmann posted his farewell message to Atletico Madrid fans. However, in these couple of days, we have seen all kinds of rumours ranging from those that suggested that Barcelona are excited to sign him to those that claimed Messi and co. don't want anything to do with the Frenchman.

Neymar Jr. is yet another big name that has been heavily linked with La Blaugrana. However, Lionel Messi has now asked the Barcelona top brass to roll the dice and launch a bid for none other than the Liverpool talisman, Mohamed Salah.

Salah has won the Premier League Golden Boot in consecutive seasons after joining from AS Roma and ensured that the departure of Philippe Coutinho did not have a negative impact on the club.

Klopp wants €220 million for the attacker. That's almost €100 million more than what Barcelona will have to play for Griezmann. But since Messi is not getting any younger and because next year could be the last year in which he can dominate teams like he did this season, Barcelona may be tempted to give him the team that he wants.
