Zlatan Ibrahimovic has insisted that he would welcome Barcelona forward Lionel Messi to French champions Paris Saint-Germain.
It has previously been suggested that the two did not see eye to eye during Ibrahimovic's time at the Camp Nou, but the Swede has welcomed recent reports linking Messi with a move to Paris.
"If he's up for sale then the whole world will be after him, not just PSG," Ibrahimovic said at a winter training camp in Doha.
"I don't know the situation but I think he's very happy at Barcelona. The press creates this but only he knows the truth. PSG's project is to dream bigger but if you buy Messi, you don't dream bigger, you are bigger."
Messi is close to returning to full fitness following a hamstring injury.
