When Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti refused to name Lionel Messi as the greatest of all time

When Lionel Messi won the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar with Argentina, the consensus notion was that the 36-year-old had completed football. Many thought Messi cemented his legacy as the GOAT.

Carlo Ancelotti was asked at that point whether Messi was indeed the greatest player to ever lace a pair of boots. The Real Madrid manager didn't agree with the notion, instead saying (via MARCA):

"It's difficult to say, I don't know if he is the best ever. It's not so fair to say that, because every era has very good players. It won't come out of my mouth that 'Messi is the best ever'. I've enjoyed so many good players.... And I've seen Johan Cruyff play, Diego Maradona..."

While Messi is hands down one of the greatest players to ever play the beautiful game, the GOAT debate often depends on personal preferences. Hence, it's hard to ever settle that matter for good.
