Fans of Istanbul's "Galatasaray" literally flooded the social media accounts of Lionel Messi and his wife Antonella following news of a potential move to the Turkish club.
According to Idman.Biz, nearly 300,000 fans requested the star forward to choose their team in less than a day.
Earlier reports suggested that the American "Inter Miami" striker could temporarily join "Galatasaray" during the MLS break. According to Fotomac, the Turkish club’s scouting department is closely monitoring the situation and is ready to offer Messi a short-term four-month contract.
There were also reports of Messi’s interest in joining a Saudi club to maintain his fitness ahead of the World Cup, but the deal did not materialize. Recall that at the end of October, the 38-year-old forward extended his contract with "Inter Miami" until 2028.
