Messi Likely to Join Bayern Munich – Maradona

Barcelona legend Diego Maradona can see Lionel Messi leaving the Nou Camp. Maradona believes Messi could eventually sign for Bayern Munich. “Before, the power of the Barcelona members was so great that they didn’t even allow sponsorship on the shirt. Now we see ‘Qatar Airways’ on the shirt. So if they allow advertising, why can’t Messi play for Bayern Munich?” asked the Argentinean. He went on to say, “I really believe that Messi could be wearing a different shirt now.” In this regard, Maradona joked about the possibility of seeing Messi wearing the German side’s shirt. “It would be the end of football.
