Italy midfielder, Roberto Donadoni, has named Napoli or Atletico Madrid as the club he would like to see forward Lionel Messi join if he leaves Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in the near future.

Messi joined PSG on a two-year deal after leaving Barcelona in the summer of 2021.

His contract with the French Ligue 1 champions will expire in the summer.

PSG are reportedly keen to tie Messi down to a new contract, but talks of a fresh deal are yet to reach a positive end.

“I think that at this moment, in the same team where Maradona played, in Napoli,” Donadoni said on Super Deportivo Radio (via PSGTalk).

“(Napoli) is playing perfect football for Messi, playing with the ball, without too much speed but with a lot of technique.”

He added: “If Leo [Messi] has doubts about renewing with PSG, let him come to Atletico de Madrid. We tell Angelito (Correa) to give him 10; we will find him a little apartment in the centre of Madrid.”
