Lionel Messi is reported to have reached an agreement in principle to buy CD Eldense, a Spanish second-tier football club. The Daily Post Nigeria reports that the deal would involve Messi acquiring 100% of the club’s shares and that the takeover would proceed without third-party involvement once due processes are completed.
Other coverage also describes the move as a preliminary agreement for Messi to take over Eldense. The Punch similarly says Messi agrees to buy the Segunda División club, framing it as his second investment in Spain. Across outlets, the common point is that the arrangement is not yet final and is presented as an initial step toward a full takeover, with details such as timing and closing conditions not fully specified in the reports provided.
