Leo Messi took the opportunity to discuss several matters surrounding Barcelona and his own aspirations after picking up The Best FIFA Men's Player award in Milan on Monday night.
Among the topics that came up was the rise of teenage sensation Ansu Fati, who has been the big positive of an underwhelming start to the campaign for the Blaugrana.
Messi knows all about the expectations that come with being labelled the next big thing at a club like Barcelona, which was why the Argentine hopes Fati will be given the time to grow.
"I like [Fati] a lot and I try to help him and support him," he told FIFA's magazine.
"He is a fantastic footballer and he has what it takes to succeed.
"But if I look at it from my perspective, I would like [Barcelona] to bring him up gradually as they did with me when I started. Doing things well and calmly, little by little and without pressure.
"We cannot forget that he is only 16. He must continue to enjoy his football and ensure that the noise surrounding him does not have a negative impact, because he has the quality to be among the best."
