(PLO) – Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder Alexis Mac Allister is confident Lionel Messi will become the best player in England if the Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) superstar will come to play in the Premier League.
With 7 Golden Balls to his name, the Argentinian is one of the best faces of all time. Messi cemented his status as one of football’s all-time greats by winning the FIFA World Cup last December.
Messi led La Albiliceste to glory at the World Cup and was awarded the Golden Ball (best player) for his contributions. Messi has also enjoyed considerable success at club level, as he has won most of the trophies attainable in football.
Frequent criticisms of the 35-year-old are that he has not tried his hand at a tougher league like the Premier League. Many believe that Messi will have difficulty in England’s top league instead of Spain’s La Liga or Ligue 1 in France.

However, Brighton midfielder Mac Allister has insisted there is no limit to Lionel Messi’s abilities. Allister is honest regarding his compatriot who will dominate the Premier League if Messi moves to England.
Allister told The Daily Mail: “If Messi plays in the Premier League, he’s not difficult to be the best, no doubt. Is that too difficult for Messi? I don’t think so. Messi has showed his class at the World Cup, the most difficult tournament in the world. He showed a remarkable level. Everyone saw how good Messi is and how important he is to Argentina.” .
Mac Allister also pointed out that the people of Argentina are grateful to Lionel Messi for helping them win the World Cup. He added: “In Argentina, we are really grateful and proud of him. Everyone knows it was thanks to Messi that we became World Cup champions. It was the name Messi that changed the lives of millions of people. Argentine people”.

Previously, Messi has been linked with a move to the Premier League at various points in his career. Manchester City is often seen as a potential destination for Messi should he decide to move to England, when the manager Pep Guardiola here is also his former teacher at Barca.
However, it is unlikely that the striker will join a Premier League club at this stage of his career. Although Messi’s contract with PSG is set to expire at the end of the season, a move to England does not appear to be in the plans of the Argentine superstar.
Meanwhile, Les Parisiens are determined to convince Lionel Messi to commit his future to them following the summer. There are also many sources, he continues to be linked back to Barcelona. American Professional Football League (MLS) club Inter Miami is also interested in Messi’s services, while Saudi Arabia’s small team Al Hilal – Ronaldo’s rival club is also interested.
