Tottenham has joined the frenetic bidding war to secure the services of Lionel Messi. This will be enough to secure the Argentine striker, widely regarded as the best player in football's history. Last year they snatched Barcelona striker Luis Suarez, who helped them to win the trophy. The news may well be another rumour as French media insist that Messi has already struck a deal with Paris-Saint Germain and is heading to Paris for medical tests. This summer, the French club has already signed such stars as Sergio Ramos (Real Madrid), Gianluigi Donnarumma (Milan), Achraf Hakimi (Internazionale) and Georginio Wijnaldum (Liverpool).
