Flores Crowns Messi the Greatest of All Time
Former Watford manager Quique Flores has unequivocally declared Lionel Messi the greatest footballer of all time, ending the debate between the Argentine and Cristiano Ronaldo in his eyes.
The long-standing rivalry between the two football icons has captivated fans worldwide, but Flores, in an interview with Diario de Sevilla, expressed his unwavering admiration for Messi. The Spaniard, who has witnessed some of football’s greatest talents, emphasized that he has never seen a player of Messi’s caliber.
While acknowledging the legendary status of Alfredo Di Stéfano, Flores admitted he didn’t have the privilege of watching him play in his prime. However, having followed football since Pelé’s era, he firmly believes Messi stands alone as the ultimate footballing icon.
