Adidas are driving Manchester United's market plans this summer.

Marca says United could be set to seal a remarkable double deal with help from an unlikely source.

Sportswear giants Adidas are planning to finance a deal that would see Lionel Messi reunite with Pep Guardiola at Old Trafford.

Adidas will persuade Guardiola to replace under-fire Louis van Gaal as the Red Devils boss this summer.

And then they want to bring Barcelona superstar Messi to the Premier League as well.
