The World Cup winning goalkeeper said he has a plan to lure the Paris Saint Germain forward to Aston Villa.
The Argentine supertar’s contract expires at the end of the season and there has been no concrete agreement concerning extension.
The 35-year-old looks set to leave Parc des Princes with his old club Barcelona said to be the most likely destination.

Martinez told ESPN, “If they are whistling Messi, I would bring him here.. at Villa [laughs] … Hey, man, we’ll drink mate, we eat asados every week. I will cut my salary, we’ll do our best [laughing]..”
