“They’re the idols of many footballers, including me. They are examples to be imitated for the continuity that allows them to remain at the highest level for so many years.”
And about Diego Armando Maradona, who died last month, the young striker added: “He’s one of the best players of all time, probably the greatest ever.
“The whole world of football mourns him. An extraordinary champion. In my mind, I have the videos of his magnificent plays and incredible goals.”
