Guardiola chose the youth player who has impressed him the most, it's not Messi

Pep Guardiola has worked with several really talented youth players throughout his professional career. The coach was with Lionel Messi when the Argentine was very young, although the Spaniard noted that another footballer impressed him more than Leo when he saw him play.

This choice of Guardiola was surprising because he has worked with several soccer stars, although he has always recognized that the best player in history is Lionel Messi, but this soccer player at the time Pep made his debut impressed him more.

This player who made his debut is a talented footballer and at Manchester City he is quite active, he is quite fast, has great ability with the ball and gives assists to his teammates. Guardiola is happy with the performance of this midfielder.

We are talking about Phil Foden, a player who is quite young and who Guardiola made his professional debut at Manchester City. He is now considered one of the best young talents in the world and is the star of the England National Team.

For Guardiola Foden is a great star

“Phil (Foden) is a talent…At skill level it's wow. He is very good. We have a special affection for him because he is young, because he is from here and because he loves the club. Is he the most talented player I've ever seen? At his age, 18 or 19 years old, it is very difficult to find the quality that he has, ”Pep Guardiola said in an interview with Sky Sports.
