CHINESE CLUB WILLING TO PAY LIONEL MESSI'S RELEASE CLAUSE

Chinese Super League club, Hebei China Fortune, are apparently arranged to meet the €700m buyout clause of Barcelona's Argentine wizard, Lionel Messi.

Messi as of late signed another long haul deal at the Nou Camp with a €700m buyout clause.

New guidelines in Chinese football mean any deal would cost Hebei a stunning €1.4bn (£1.2bn).

Reports in different European news media said Hebei China Fortune, which signed Javier Mascherano from the Catalan side in January, is setting up another offer for Messi after their first move was rejected.

Hebei likewise signed Ezequiel Lavezzi and reports asserted the two signings were gone for persuading Messi to join the club.

The Argentine extended his agreement with FC Barcelona until 2021 as of late, turning into the most paid player in football all the while.

Hebei is apparently resolved to sign the Argentine star after he was named the most prominent player among Chinese football fans a week ago, beating any semblance of Cristiano Ronaldo and Paul Pogba.

Be that as it may, the new exchange assessment of 100% of the expense for abroad players presented by Chinese football controller may remain in Hebei's way as it will bring absolute charges paid for Messi to €1.4bn.
