The Inter coach responded to the possibility of signing the Barcelona star

Inter Milan coach Antonio Conte gave an ironic response when asked about his team's chances of signing Lionel Messi from Barcelona. 

An image of Messi was projected on to the Duomo cathedral in Milan on Tuesday ahead of Inter's game against Napoli, drawing speculation about the Argentine's future once again. 

"It'd be easier to move the Duomo than to bring Messi to Inter," Conte joked to Sky Sport after beating Napoli. 

Asked whether he would rather see the club sign the Barça captain Lionel Messi or four players worth €50 million each, he added: "I think both of these scenarios are pretty improbable."
