Lionel Messi to Arsenal: Gunners fans start project to pay Barcelona superstar's reported £600,000 wages

Arsenal fans have taken reports that Lionel Messi wants to a move to the Emirates with a pinch of salt, with one fan comically asking 599,999 other supporters to help pay the Barceloa maestro's wages.

The Daily Starran a report on Monday claiming that Messi is keen on moving to Arsenal providing they can cough up what would be a world record wage of £600,000-a-week.

The 28-year-old Argentina international would cost in the region of £200m should anyone wish to snap him up on a transfer,and on wages of £600,000-a-week, the Gunners would have to shell out nearly £1bn extra to pay him.

But one Arsenal fan has come up with a unique way to bay for Messi's wages. Twitter user @matt_clarky has offered to set-up a £1 direct debit each week to Messi, and has called on his fellow Gunners to do the same.

See the Arsenal fan's tweet below:

I'm pretty sure I could find another 599,999 other #Arsenalfans willing to set up a £1/week direct debit. #messi#afc#justdoit#thedream
