Messi is the best player in history – Pope Francis

Pope Francis has said that Lionel Messi is the best footballer of all time.

The head of the Catholic Church, was speaking in Krakow, Poland, on a trip for the World Youth Day.

He was joined by 12 youths and one of them asked him, “Who is better, Maradona or Pele?”. He simply responded: “For me, Messi,” without giving further explanation.

According to reports, there were almost three million pilgrims at the mass he celebrated, on the final day of his trip to Poland, as the 1,050th anniversary of the country’s adoption of Christianity was celebrated.
