Lionel Messi urges Barcelona to sell Lucas Digne and buy Real Madrid target

A frustrated Lionel Messi has reportedly told Barcelona to sell Lucas Digne.

The Argentinian playmaker has grown frustrated with the French full-back's floundering form.

Digne has put in multiple abject performances during this term - and Messi wants him out.

Diario Gol report the La Liga leaders could target Real Sociedad ace Alvaro Odriozola, who has also attracted interest from Real Madrid.

Jose Gaya and Toni Lato are also attracting interest from the Nou Camp side.

This weekend, Philippe Coutinho made his first LaLiga start for Barcelona but it was Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi who stole the headlines once again in a 2-1 win against Alaves.
