Lionel Messi praises Zidane for leaving Real Madrid on a high

Lionel Messi has expressed his admiration to Zinedine Zidane for leaving Real Madrid on a high last week. The manager walked away dramatically last week just a week after winning the Champions League for the third straight time. Messi told El Mundo Deportivo: 'Nobody expected it. It was a big surprise but he will have his reasons. 'I don't know what will have happened but it's good to go in the way he went after a time spent then in which he won practically everything. Nobody can hold anything against him.' The Argentine star also emphasized that he wouldn’t like Neymar to return to the club and stated that his friend definitely knows what to do to his future. 'I would personally love to see him back at Barcelona. He is an exceptional player. I would be great for us if he came back. 'But the truth is I think it is very unlikely. Having him here again would be fantastic. If it was up to me I would love to see it.' 'I would personally love to see him back at Barcelona. He is an exceptional player. I would be great for us if he came back. 'But the truth is I think it is very unlikely. Having him here again would be fantastic. If it was up to me I would love to see it.' 'If he goes to Madrid the truth is I would not like that at all.'
