He likened the debate to choosing between Lionel Messi and Diego Maradona, calling the comparisons “utterly foolish.”

Comparisons do not interest me in the slightest. They are both excellent footballers. It is the same when people say, ‘Messi or Maradona.’ I find those comparisons utterly foolish.
