Former Barcelona player Hristo Stoichkov got rid of praise for the Argentine.
“ Messi is a very humble guy and people value him very much. I have known Leo since childhood since he arrived in Barcelona and has always shown that he is an out of series ”, said Stoichkov.
The Bulgarian added that “He would have to have many more Ballon d'Ors, a couple more”, and commented that “he deserves it, God is so great that he values the humility that Lionel has with children, with family and his love for Barcelona, and there is no money that can afford that. ”
On an individual basis, he recalled when he received the Golden Ball award, 25 years ago: “I went through this same carpet and made it proud to represent Barça, my country, my teammates and the Mister, may he rest in peace. It is a spectacular day that gives you goosebumps because it is a work of many years. ”
