Lionel Messi who is the captain of Barcelona has been hailed by his manager at Camp Nou, Ronald Koeman, who claimed that the world would never see any player like the Argentine again.

There is no doubt about the fact that Lionel Messi is one of the best players in the world considering his brilliant performances since he broke into Barcelona's first team.

Since 2004 that Lionel Messi has been playing for Barcelona's first team, the Argentine has won six Ballon d'Or awards with the Catalans more than any other player on earth.

Cristiano Ronaldo is the one close to Lionel Messi on the Ballon d'Or award won as the Portugal international has five.

Lionel Messi has also won four Champions League titles and 10 Spanish La Liga crowns so far in his incredible career at Barcelona.

According to the report on GOAL, Ronald Koeman explained that it is amazing coaching a player like Lionel Messi at Barcelona.

"They are impressive figures, we will never see a player like that again, who has given so much happiness, that is why he is number one and is so important.
"We saw him shine the other day, we depend on him. I do not know how many hat-tricks he has scored once again, it's amazing what he's done for this club."

Earlier, Legit.ng had reported how Jorge who is the father of Barcelona star Lionel Messi rubbished speculation linking his star son with a move to join reigning French champions, Paris-Saint-Germain.

Lionel Messi's current contract with Barcelona will be expiring at the end of the ongoing League season in Europe and the club's chiefs have not succeeded in making him sign a new deal.

The Argentina international actually wanted to leave Barcelona before the start of the 2020/21 League term because of the club's embarrassing defeat against Bayern Munich in the UCL.

Jorge travelled to Spain from Argentina to have a meeting with Barcelona chiefs over the future of his son and was able to convince Lionel Messi to stay, at least, to honour his contract.
