Lionel Messi has hailed Pep Guardiola as the "best coach in the world" after he guided Manchester City to a historic treble.
Guardiola has become just the second manager after Sir Alex Ferguson to win the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League in the same season. And Messi was delighted to see his former boss win a third Champions League with City, having been part of his Barcelona side when he won his first two in 2009 and 2011.
"I talk a lot with Guardiola and [have] kept in frequent contact," Messi told Titan Sports. "I'm very happy with what he's achieved, [winning] the last Champions League.
