Jordi Alba’s words about Lamine Yamal: 'He cannot be compared to Messi'

Jordi Alba, who wore the Barcelona shirt for most of his career and now plays for Inter Miami in MLS, made important statements on a program he attended.

“IT DESERVES TO BE FELT AGAIN”

Speaking about the possibility of Lionel Messi returning to Barcelona, Alba said, “Messi wants to be honored. I hope this happens. Leo deserves this. Everyone is waiting for this moment. Messi is the best in history and Camp Nou deserves to feel his energy again.” Speaking about the period when the Argentinian star left Barcelona, Jordi Alba continued: “It was a huge blow for everyone. We thought he would renew his contract, and I learned about the situation from reports in the media. It was not the kind of departure he deserved.”

“HE CANNOT BE COMPARED TO MESSI”

Lastly, speaking about the comparison between Lamine Yamal and Lionel Messi, Jordi Alba concluded: “Yamal is a fantastic player but comparing him to Lionel Messi is meaningless. A comparison cannot be made.”
