Media reports have indicated that Turkish club Galatasaray has shown interest in signing Argentine star Lionel Messi for a 4-month period during the stoppage of the American soccer league due to the World Cup. The 'Foot Mercato' website explained that the Turkish giant is ready to pay Messi's salary that he receives with Inter Miami during that period. Galatasaray is seeking to strengthen its ranks with prominent names in the world of football to add an attractive force to the team that will give it greater competitiveness in domestic and European competitions. Players in the American league are allowed to play for foreign clubs, either in the Old Continent or Latin America, during the 4-month break in the competition. Earlier media reports had linked South Korean international Heung-min Son to a move to AC Milan during this period.
