FC Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi has reportedly told the Catalan club that they need to sign this star player.

The Spanish giants have been heavily linked with Atletico Madrid forward Antoine Griezmann in recent weeks, but according to Don Balon, Messi believes there is another player more suitable to the role.
The report claimed the Argentine has urged his club to target Chelsea winger Eden Hazard, who he feels has all the attributes to succeed at Barca.
Messi is believed to be a huge fan of the tricky Belgian attacker, although it is unlikely the Blues would allow the player to leave in January.
Hazard has, however, been linked with the likes of Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain in recent transfer windows.
The player has also admitted in the past that anything is possible regarding his future, while he also confessed a few months ago that he was flattered by Barca's interest at the beginning of the season.
