Franck Ribery's agent Alain Migliaccio has declared that it would be "phenomenal" to see the Bayern Munich talisman linking up with Lionel Messi at Barcelona.

Migliaccio also stated that there has been no concrete decision made on the player's future and refused to rule any possibility for the French midfielder, contradicting reports earlier this season that there is already an agreement in place for Ribery to sign for Madrid.

"We do not close any doors," Migliaccio is quoted as saying by Sport.

Ribery's contract with the Bavarian giants expires in June 2011 and it is widely expected that the player will depart in the summer with Migliaccio saying the first team is to speak to officials at the Bundesliga powerhouse.

"First we will talk with Bayern [Munich] and then we'll see," he remarked before responding to the possibility of Messi and Ribery playing on the same team at Barcelona by saying," it would be phenomenal."
