Guardiola wanted him to become the new Messi, now he's trying to save his career at 30 years of age
Guardiola had big plans for him, but fate dictated otherwise.
Since Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo began to stand out in the world of football, at a very young age, every time a new talent emerges in any corner of the world, the press does not take long to dub them as the next Messi, or the new Ronaldo.
This was precisely the case for Mario Gotze, a 30-year-old German player. Pep Guardiola coached Bayern Munich when Gotze was at his best, and the Spanish coach believed he would become the next Lionel Messi.
