One of the great stars of American soccer praises Lionel Messi

Lionel Messi has arrivedball. The Argentine forward has established himself in an important way in the game of soccer in the United States with the intention of expanding his legacy in soccer history and his first months at the club do not go unnoticed by great American soccer stars. Now, a soccer legend already has his first words for Messi.

 

 

Landon Donovan, historic captain of the United States National Team and legend of the LA Galaxy, commented on his impressions regarding Lionel Messi's first month in Miami. It should be remembered that the Argentine was crowned in the Leagues Cup as a figure and scorer of the tournament, scoring in each of the games he played.

"I didn't think that Messi's arrival was going to be crazy, Beckham's arrival touched me, but what is happening at the moment with Messi is incredible," he explained to the TUDN microphones. In addition, he stressed that it is very likely that at some point Lionel Messi will win the MLS title if he continues at the pace he is at.

 

What else did Landon Donovan say?

"I didn't have to play against Messi, that's why I have six championships (he said between laughs), I think that for the moment he is still the best player in the world and he can win the title here in MLS", he added. Lionel Messi now has the challenge of the US Open Cup, where he could win his second official title with the club.
