Marco Verratti has become the latest Paris Saint-Germain player to flirt with the idea of Lionel Messi moving to the Parc des Princes.
Mauricio Pochettino, Leandro Paredes, Angel Di Maria and sporting director Leonardo have all touched on the possibility of the Argentine joining PSG when his contract at Barcelona expires in the summer.
"Of course I'd like to play with Messi," Verratti told Canal+. "I'd be giving the ball to Neymar and Messi, standing back and watching.
"It'd be fantastic to have him with us - another gift that football would've given me."
The comments come in the lead-up to PSG's meeting with Messi and Barcelona in the last 16 of the Champions League.
