Inter Milan captain Javier Zanetti admits president Massimo Moratti is desperate to sign Lionel Messi.
The Barcelona star was linked with Inter last week and Zanetti said of his fellow Argentine: "Moratti is crazy about Messi, he tried to sign him, but now it's impossible.
"Leo does not want to move from Barcelona, he told me that with the Blaugrana he is happy, has fun, loves the club and the fans. He is a leader at Barca, but maybe one day when I am a director of Inter ..."
Zanetti added: "Messi is a genius. He's extraordinary, devastating and unpredictable. I have been fortunate to play with great players like Baggio, Vieri, Ronaldo, Adriano, Ibra ... but Messi has something special."
