Andrés D’Alessandro spoke about Lionel Messi’s talent.

D’Alessandro played most of his Argentina national team career without Lionel Messi but the now retired midfielder took part in a handful of matches with Messi. The Argentine spoke on the Charla Podcast about Messi and his talent. Here is what he had to say:

“I played a bit with Leo in the national team but I played. Messi in training, he would get the ball and pass everyone. He was very strong. In training he impressed us. He’s small, has a low center of gravity, fast and light. At 18-19, he was a monster.”

He was also asked to pick between Lionel Messi and Diego Maradona:

“I’ll stick with Messi. More complete when it comes to scoring. Diego had more charm but Leo is more complete. And Messi has remained at an absurd level and performance for 15 years. And now he is a World Champion, which was missing.”
