Pirelli supremo Marco Tronchetti Provera has raised the prospect of moving for Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi.

Provera remains a powerbroker at Inter, despite the club now being under the control of Suning.

With Messi's deal due to expire in 2018 and new contract talks yet to kickoff, Provera has raised the prospect of tempting the Argentine to Italy.

"The dream is Leo and sometimes dreams can happen," he told Corriere dello Sport.

It's also emerged this week that Messi's father, Jorge, has been sounded out by PSG chief Patrick Kluivert about a move to Paris.
