Paris Saint-Germain striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic feels the club should jump at the chance to sign Lionel Messi if he is ever put up for sale.
Messi was recently linked with a move to PSG with the €250m release clause not deemed a problem for club owners.

However, it has long been known that Barcelona and the player are happy with life together and, indeed, Messi could be set for a contract extension.
Still, it has not stopped Ibrahimovic from dreaming as the winter break nears an end in France.

"If [Messi] is on the market, there will be clubs the world over, not just PSG, eyeing him", Ibrahimovic was quoted by L'Equipe as saying.
"The project of the club is to 'dream bigger'. But if you take Messi, you're not just dreaming bigger, you are bigger."
Messi is currently out injured with hamstring trouble but is expected to make a return for Barcelona in early January.
