Sergio Aguero has revealed that he has tried to convince Lionel Messi to leave Barcelona and join Manchester City.
The duo play alongside one another at international level for Argentina, and the five-time Ballon d'Or winner has been linked with a move to the Premier League.
Last week, Messi insisted that he wants to end his career at the Camp Nou, but that has not stopped Aguero trying to change his mind.
"He already knows there's no beach," Aguero told Sky Sports News. "We play every three days so we just eat, rest between games, so the weather is not really that important.
"So I told him that Manchester is ideal as a city because you stay at home all day, you play every three days, we can eat, we can meet up, drink mate (a traditional Argentine drink) and play football together."
Messi has played his entire career at Barcelona, making his debut at the age of 17 in 2004.
