He also talked about playing alongside Lionel Messi at club and international level. “With Leo I accomplished everything. The only thing I was missing was to play in a club with him, and the day they said goodbye to me in PSG. I hugged him and told him: ‘the only thing I’m grateful for is to have been able to play with you in a club, to be able to see you every day.’
“Being there for a whole year, seeing him for a whole year, the training, seeing the things he does, for me that was the best, and I was able to experience it.”
