Maradona attacks Messi again, makes statement that will annoy the Barcelona star

Argentine football legend Diego Maradona has continued with his words of war against Barcelona star Lionel Messi after being released from hospital.

Recently, Diego Maradona who is the current manager of Mexican second division club Dorados was released from hospital after an emergency operation.

But despite still recuperating following the internal bleeding operation, the 58-year-old has attacked Lionel Messi again over his leadership style.

"I love Messi with all my heart.

"They want to make him a leader but he isn't able to do that because he's going to be in his sporting world and with his family,'' Maradona told Argentine newspaper 'Olé' according to UK Mirror.

Last year after Argentina's poor show at the 2018 World Cup, Diego Maradona slammed Lionel Messi claiming that he does not play for Argentina the way he plays for Barcelona.

He also made it clear that it would be a waste of time trying to turn Lionel Messi to a leader because he goes to toilet 20 times before a match.

Maradona stressed that he will not invite Lionel Messi to the national team if he should finds his way back to handle his country's senior men team.

Lionel Messi has won everything at Barcelona, but he is yet to win the World Cup with the national team and he was also disappointed with how France sent his country out at Russia 2018.
