Transfer Latest: Pochettino Speaks On Messi To PSG

Amid Lionel Messi transfer rumours, new PSG manager, Mauricio Pochettino says "all great players are welcome at PSG", AllNews reports.

The French giants recently appointed the former Tottenham Hotspur trainer following the December 2020 dismissal of Thomas Tuchel.

Messi has reportedly made clear that his future at Barcelona is very much up in the air, and many feel that Manchester City and PSG are the only two clubs with the financial power to cover the six-time Ballon d'Or winner's wages.

'Poch' is not ruling out the possibility of signing his countryman.

"Each club is different and it is difficult to compare," Pochettino said during the press conference.

"It would not be objective for me to talk about Tottenham because I was there [previously], but now I am one hundred percent in Paris.

"We are not talking about [possible signings] but about adapting ourselves to the club, and we have a game tomorrow.

"But I already said that in the future there will be time to talk about those things. A great player is always welcome at PSG."
