Former Sweden international, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, has insisted that everything Argentina captain Lionel Messi touches turns into glory.
The former Manchester United striker stated this on a Fox Sports program while speaking about Messi’s impressive display against Algeria in the World Cup on Wednesday morning.
According to Ibrahimovic, there may never be another Messi in the game of football again.
Recall that Messi’s hat-trick ensured Argentina defeated Algeria 3-0 in their World Cup opener.
“I have said many times, with Messi’s game, you just need to watch and enjoy. There may never be another Messi in football; he is too special, his talent is innate,” Ibrahimovic said.
“The sport of football seems to exist for him; everything he touches turns into glory. When you need him to step up, this guy steps up.”
