Years ago he belittled Lionel Messi, now he retracts and flatters the Argentine

In  the year 2017, Paulo Dybala was heavily criticized by the entire Argentine and European press in general, when he said: "It is very difficult to play with Lionel Messi", although his words were taken out of context, the phrase is very striking, and was taken as a criticism of Lionel, which he did not like at all.

Once we entered into context, the then Juventus midfielder, a giant from Italy, was referring to the fact that they both play in the same place on the pitch, so he couldn't meet Messi on the pitch and therefore made it very complicated to play together.

Now everything is different, Paulo Dybala has finally been able to recover his level, after stagnating all these years when he played for Juventus. Now, the Argentine attacking midfielder plays under the command of Jose Mourinho, in Roma of Serie A. There he is the soccer leader of the team, and he is in better shape than ever.

In fact, reports assure that one of the reasons for Paulo Dybala's departure from 'Juve' was to be able to have more minutes and thus have more chances that Lionel Scaloni will call him for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, a plan that, at the moment, is working out for him.

How is Dybala now with Messi?

Years after his famous words, he now spoke to TyC Sports and highlighted the importance of having Lionel Messi in the team: "Leo is very good. When he is good, we are all good. The illusion continues to grow more and more", expressed the young and talented Roma midfielder.
