“If I had to describe Messi in one word? Pure magic. Because in the end, me and Leo are not always together, and today it is very important for me to tell him how much I admire him. And to all those who love football and these players who are different. Messi is pure magic. In the sense that even before receiving the ball he already knows what needs to be done.”
Zizou also revealed that by watching La Pulga play, he also saw himself through himself in a way: “For me, who understands football, when I see you on the field I almost already know what you are going to do. It’s like a connection between us. When I see him doing what he does, I say to myself “that’s exactly it”. And that’s what people want to see in football. There are very few like him. He is even the only one.”
