Felipe Melo, a former star for Juventus, has broken the news that Lionel Messi is the “best player in the world” and has revealed why the Inter Miami sensation is “better than before.”

Lionel Messi was rightfully awarded the Ballon d’Or, according to Felipe Melo, a former Juventus great and fluminese midfielder.

In an interview with TyC Sports, the former Brazil international claimed to have witnessed Messi’s steady improvement. Melo, who is also 40 years old and has just won the Copa Libertadores with Fluminense, is so delighted by the Argentine’s recent play that he calls him the “best in the world.”

Messi is likely to have a role in Tuesday night’s FIFA World Cup qualifying match between Argentina and Brazil. Meanwhile, Melo has won the Libertadores title and is out of the Selecao conversation. His contract with the South American side extends until 2024, although at age 40, his future is uncertain.
