No matter what happens, Lionel Messi is still the best player in the world

DBasia.news – Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni talks about Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi’s career with Argentina. According to him, with or without a trophy with the Albiceleste, La Pulga remains one of the best players in the world.

Messi has reached the final of a major tournament four times and left empty-handed or has never won with Argentina. The chance of winning the six Ballon d’Or to end the wait is open.

Argentina will face Brazil at the Maracana, Sunday (11/07) at 07.00 WIB in the 2021 Copa America final. Brazil is not an easy opponent to beat, but the chances of both teams are equally strong 50-50.

Scaloni answered questions about Messi’s title fast with Argentina. Scaloni firmly believes that Messi will remain one of the best footballers in history, with or without winning the title with the Argentine national team.

“Win or not, he (Messi) will continue to be the best footballer in history, he doesn’t need to win titles to show that,” Scaloni said.

“Obviously, we wanted to win because we are all doing this fight to end the wait for the title.”

“In the background, whether Leo wins or not, he has shown that he is the best in history, and even opponents admit it,” he added.

Messi (33 years old) is also still in the spotlight as his contract has expired with Barcelona. If he doesn’t extend it, Messi can leave with the status of a free agent, aka free transfer. Manchester City and PSG are monitoring the situation.
