Real coach Ancelotti: “I won’t say Messi is the best ever.”

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti does not join the many who think Lionel Messi has become the greatest player of all time since winning the World Cup in Qatar in an Argentina jersey.

“It’s hard to say, I don’t know if Messi is the best in history. It’s not so fair to say that, because every era has very strong players. It will not come out of my mouth that Messi is the best in history. I have enjoyed so many strong players, I coach a Ballon d’Or every day. I’ve seen Cruyff play, Maradona…,” he told a press conference.

La Pulce scored seven goals in Qatar, contributing decisively to the albiceleste’s third rainbow triumph.
