Revolution Recruit Lionel Messi With Simple Tweet After Barcelona Exit

Probably not, but don’t tell that to the New England Revolution.

In case you haven’t heard, FC Barcelona on Thursday announced that superstar Lionel Messi will not re-sign with the club. The 34-year-old, considered by some to be the greatest soccer player of all time, has been a free agent since June 30.

The New England Revolution reacted to the news with a simple recruitment pitch.

That said, if Messi ever were to consider a jump to Major League Soccer, the Revolution wouldn’t be a terrible landing spot. New England currently owns the league’s top record at 18-11-4.
