Sarabia: "Messi is the best player in history"

Andorra manager Eder Sarabia coached Lionel Messi when he was Barcelona's assistant coach under Quique Setien. For the Spanish coach, Messi is the best player in history.

"For me, he's the best footballer in history. Argentina did not need to win the World Cup to prove it," he said.

Sarabia spoke about the debate between Messi and Maradona: "I understand that there is a debate but I have no doubt that all of us who like football have sat in front of the television to watch him (Messi) and see everything he is capable of doing. The title is well deserved.

"I get goosebumps talking about him. It's true that I haven't been lucky enough to see them all but I think he is the best player in history. He has closed a cycle in the best possible way. Whether you are Argentinian or not, whether you are a Barca fan or not, there is no doubt that he is a genius," he concluded.
