Lionel may move to England in two years

Alvaro Negredo revealed that he is of the opinion that, Lionel Messi could move to England in the next two years.

Espn quoted Negredo: “I could see someone like Messi coming to England and following players like David Silva, Juan Mata, Santi Cazorla, David de Gea and myself.

“He could play well in any league in the world. Maybe in two or five years he will get bored with La Liga, want a change and come over here.

“The Premier League is the best place to be for the world’s top stars,” he added. “Having been here for a few months it is better than I thought it would be. Your expectations go up here.”

Negredo made a successful transition to England this season, after he joined Premier League giant Manchester City from Sevilla.

Lionel Messi had often stated his desire to finish his career with Barcelona, where he made his senior debut in 2004, but Negredo insists the Argentine could join the recent group of players moving to England from Spain’s La Liga.
