JAKARTA - New Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma has sent a big signal that Lionel Messi is on the verge of joining the Parisian club after admitting that his potential team-mate will soon sign a contract.
PSG have officially offered a two-year contract with the option of a one-year extension to the six-time Ballon d'Or winner.
PSG boss Mauricio Pochettino has just bought Donnarumma, Sergio Ramos and Georginio Wijnaldum on free transfers, in addition to wrapping up Achraf Hakimi's contract worth £71 million.
According to Donnarumma, Messi's contract is just waiting to be signed.
"It's not official yet, but I think it will be signed soon. I'm glad he came here," the Italian goalkeeper told TuttoMercatoWeb.
"He is the greatest, the best in the world. I am happy and happy to imagine him with the team. It will be an honor to play with him," continued Donnarumma.
Messi's move to PSG became inevitable after his departure from Barcelona was confirmed.
PSG, which is owned by a businessman and part of the Qatari rulers, is one of the two clubs that could buy Messi the most apart from Manchester City.
Messi has even met a number of PSG stars, including Neymar, who was his former Barcelona co-star on a recent holiday. Messi said it was just a coincidence.
However, Messi admits that he has spoken to Mauricio Pochettino about a possible move to PSG.
Meanwhile, Barcelona supporters are trying to block Messi's move to PSG. They also vented their frustration on the likes of Antoine Griezmann, Philippe Coutinho, Miralem Pjanic and Samuel Umtiti who continued to whistle when they played Juventus in the Joan Gamper trophy.
