"Real" Madrid, "Chelsea" from London, and "Bayern" from Munich - clubs that tried to acquire Barcelona star Lionel Messi. According to the Barcelona newspaper "Mundo Deportivo", all three teams are sponsored by "Adidas", the same brand whose shoes L.Messi wears. Earlier it was reported that "Chelsea" and "Bayern" were ready to pay up to 250 million euros for the Argentine, but Messi himself rejected the offer. The same source also mentioned that the four-time best player on the planet didn't even consider leaving Barcelona despite offers from other clubs. Several clubs have offered contracts to the 26-year-old forward, but the Barcelona-raised player remains loyal to the Spanish champions and has never considered leaving."
