Maradona Caught On Microphone Saying Messi Has No Personality

Iconic Argentine footballer,
Maradona was caught on a hot mic
telling Brazilian legend Pele that
Messi has no personality at a
publicity event in Paris.
Pele asked his fellow World Cup
winner if he knows his compatriot
personally, prompting Maradona to
offer an unguarded response.
“He’s a really good person, but he
has no personality,” Maradona
said.
“He lacks [the] character to be a
leader.”
Pele responded: “Ah, I get it, he’s
not like we were back in the days.
In the 70s we [Brazil] had really
good players like Rivellino, Gerson,
Tostao.
“Not like Argentina now, which
depends only on Messi. He
[Maradona] is saying that Messi is
a good player, there’s no doubt
about it, but he has no personality.”
