In club football, Lionel Messi has been trained by many coaches in Barcelona and PSG. The actor has opened up about the best coach in his career.
He said former Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola was the coach who influenced him the most. The player’s previous interview with Barca Bluegrains is making waves once again.
“The best training I had in my career was playing under Pep. Whatever he plans in the game, everything happens that way. Pep looks at things and prepares for the game in a different way.
He is the one who helped bring Barça to where it is today. He will train everything a star needs to rise in his career. Everyone who trains under Pep would have the same thing to say,” Messi said.
In 2008, Pep Guardiola took over as Barça coach. Barca achieved many records under his management, including three La Liga titles and two UEFA Champions League trophies. Messi was Guardiola’s favorite player at Barça.
While at Barcelona, Messi scored 211 goals and 94 assists in 219 games under Guardiola. In the 2011-12 season alone, Messi managed to score 73 goals and 32 assists in 50 games.
Guardiola left Barcelona and joined Bayern Munich in 2012. Then in 2016, he was going to Manchester City. Guardiola won four Premier League titles for City.
