Real Madrid legend Marcelo says Lionel Messi is the most dangerous opponent he has faced so far in his career. Messi has locked horns with Real Madrid defender Marcelo for 15 seasons while he laced up his boots for Barcelona. Marcelo has now revealed that it was very difficult to meet Messi that day.
Marcelo said that Messi is an impossible player and feels lucky to play against him in the Clasico. Marcelo shared these things while talking to The Athletico.
“Messi is an impossible player. The most dangerous opponent I have faced in my career. We all know his quality at 35. It was the same at that time. El Clasico is an all-time great competition to watch and play.
I feel very lucky to have played in the beautiful era of Clasico. “There were other impossible players, not just Messi,” Marcelo said.
Messi played 778 matches for Barcelona. From this, the player had 672 goals and 303 assists. Meanwhile, Messi’s contract with the Paris club expires in June. With this, the football world is hoping that Messi, who will become a free agent, will go next.
There are reports that clubs including Inter Miami, Barcelona and Al Hilal are in the field to acquire Messi, who will become a free agent if the contract with Messi is not renewed before June.
Rumors regarding Messi’s club transfer have been circulating widely, but the player has not given any response on the matter. It is clear from the reports that Messi is not interested in renewing his contract with PSG.
