Juventus will be in the hunt for Lionel Messi should the Argentine leave Barcelona this summer, according to a report.

Juventus will reportedly be in the hunt for Lionel Messi should the Argentine decide to leave Barcelona in this summer's transfer window.

The 32-year-old, who is widely considered to be the best player in the history of football, has scored an incredible 622 goals in 711 appearances for Barca in all competitions.

There have been suggestions that the South American is considering his future at Camp Nou, though, and Manchester City are thought to be keeping a close eye on developments.

Messi has a contract with Barca until the summer of 2021, although he would be able to leave the Spanish champions on a free transfer at the end of the 2019-20 campaign if he wishes.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Juve are among the clubs monitoring developments at Camp Nou, with the Italian champions looking to pair Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi in attack.

The Barca forward, who has scored 19 times in 24 appearances at club level this season, recently took aim at his team's sporting director Eric Abidal after the Frenchman criticised the work ethic of players at Camp Nou.

Ronaldo, meanwhile, has found the back of the net on 50 occasions in 70 appearances for Juve since joining the Serie A giants from Real Madrid in July 2018.
