Premier League side Manchester City have reportedly offered Barcelona mega million plus Brazilian forward Gabriel Jesus for them to sign Lionel Messi this summer.
Messi handed in a transfer request following a fallout between him and newly appointed coach Ronald Koeman.
Valverde was fired with Barcelona at the top of La Liga and his replacement, Quique Setién, was sent packing when Bayern Munich demolished them 8-2 in the Champions League.
The news of Messi wanting to leave Barcelona came as a shock for all the club's fans considering the number of years the Argentine has been with them.
There have been discussions among Barcelona chiefs since Messi made it clear that he wants to leave, but it seems the Argentine is not reversing his decision.
And according to the latest report by Daily Star, Manchester City are also ready to sign Messi with the club offering Barcelona Gabriel Jesus and cash.
But it is not clear if Barcelona will want to accept Gabriel Jesus considering the fact that they have Ousmane Dembele.
The Catalans will also welcome Brazilian star Philippe Coutinho back to the Nou Camp after leaving German side Bayern Munich after winning the Champions League.
