Bayern would never sign Messi - Guardiola

The 42-year-old believes a bid would never be
sanctioned by club president Uli Hoeness and
is relishing the packed fixture list over the
next month
Pep Guardiola has ruled out the possibility of
reuniting with Lionel Messi at Bayern Munich .
The Spaniard took over as coach of the
Bundesliga outfit at the start of the summer
and has already brought former Barcelona
starlet Thiago Alcantara to the Allianz Arena.
However, Guardiola insists the German
champions would never sanction a mega-
money bid for the Argentine, and believes the
26-year-old has no desire to quit the club.
"[Bayern president] Uli Hoeness surely would
never offer to spend a fortune to sign Messi,"
he told reporters.
"Bayern Munich does not work that way, and
the player is happy at Barcelona."
The former Barca boss revealed he is relishing
the congested fixture list over the next month
as Bayern prepare to play seven games over
the next 22 days.
"My nose tells me that we will have a good
season, and in May we will be fighting for
titles," the 42-year-old added.
"We are approaching a great period in the next
few weeks, and we are ready for the challenges
ahead."
Bayern host Hannover on Saturday, before
kicking off their Champions League title
defence at home to CSKA Moscow on Tuesday.
