English billionaire Jim Ratcliffe says he wants to sign Lionel Messi for Nice.
With tongue in cheek, Ratcliffe says it would be a dream come true to sign the Barcelona star – no matter his age.
He told L’Equipe: “The player I would like to see in Nice? For me, the best player in the world is Lionel Messi.
“If I can buy him? Maybe when he turns 45, but he will continue to score!
“Bobby Charlton retired at age 47. Oh no, it was Stanley Matthews … He always said that his biggest regret was to have stopped too early!”
