Dutch great Van Basten: Messi not in top three of all time

Dutch great Marco van Basten insists PSG star Lionel Messi is not in the top three players of all time.

According to the former AC Milan striker, the former Barcelona star, who has won seven Ballon d’Ors, is not the game’s greatest.

“Pele, [Diego] Maradona and [Johan] Cruyff are for me the three greatest players in history,” he told France Football.

“As a kid I wanted to be like Cruyff. He was my friend. I miss him. Pele and Maradona were also incredible.

“Messi is also a great player, but Maradona always had more personality in a team. Messi is not the one who puts himself at the front to go to war.”
