Former Paris Saint-Germain star backs Lionel Messi in the GOAT debate
Former Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Marco Verratti picked Lionel Messi over the Portuguese icon Cristiano Ronaldo when he was asked to choose between the two. Messi and Verratti were a part of PSG for two seasons between 2021 and 2023.
Verratti and Messi made 57 appearances for the French champions together and also made a goal contribution, where the Italian assisted Messi. During an interview by Alkass TV Sports, Verratti backed his former teammate by saying that he's ahead of everyone.
"For me, Lionel Messi is ahead of everyone. He is the best player in history."
After 11 years with Paris Saint-Germain, Verratti joined Qatari side Al-Arabi for a transfer fee of €45 million earlier this summer. On the other side, Lionel Messi also parted ways with the French champions and signed a deal with Inter Miami earlier this summer.
