It couldn’t have been any other way — and the GOAT, according to him, was playing for the opposing team. He had said it months ago and repeated it once again through his social media. The French national team forward insists that Messi is still the greatest of all time.

Through his official X account (formerly Twitter), and with a photo of them exchanging jerseys accompanied by a heartfelt message to his colleague, Dembele sent his best wishes to the Herons’ number 10.
