EPL: No one can play like him – Man Utd winger reacts to comparisons with Messi

Manchester United winger, Amad Diallo has said “no-one plays like Lionel Messi”.

Diallo was reacting to comparisons with the Inter Miami superstar.

The 21-year-old’s technical ability has won plenty of admirers, with the fleet-footed youngster able to leave teammates bamboozled in training.

But Amad is eager to avoid being likened to one of the greatest players of all time.

He told United’s official website: “I know they said this [that I was like Lionel Messi in training] but no one plays like Messi.

“I am proud he [Gomez] says I play like Messi but I say no one plays like Messi! In training, I was like the same here, with a little bit of dribbling and scoring, so they say my football is more like Messi but, today, I say no one can play like Messi.”
