Three attempts of Real to `steal` Messi were revealed

Real Madrid has tried to make perhaps the most shocking transfer in the history of football. Not once, but three times. According to the newspaper `Cardena Koppe`, `white` sent three offers to the biggest star of their big rivals Barcelona, Leo Messi.
The first of them was in the summer of 2011, when it had info that the biggest star of the `Kings` Cristiano Ronaldo can pass at Manchester City for a quarter of a billion euros. But first, Messi strongly refused and then the transfer deal for the Portuguese were gone.
In that year, the senior clerk of Real, who is also a close friend of the President Florentino Perez, has contacted representatives of the Argentine`s and made the offer. The answer was quick and clear: `No, thanks!`
The second case was two years later. Then again there was ambiguity about Cristiano Ronaldo, who whined about the re-signing of the treaty. And Real turned first to Neymar, but could not commit him and again focus on Messi.
Then Peres personally had incognito visit somewhere in Catalonia with representatives of Messi, but was cut again. The last attempt of the team to commit it was in the summer of 2014, but then was the most unequivocal denial on the part of the Argentine staff.
The loudest transfer Barca-Real was in 2000, when Luis Figo switched Camp Nou with the Santiago Bernabeu. Since then there hasn`t been so loud transfer.
