'Age no barrier to Messi brilliance' - Kluivert hoping to see Barcelona star become best of all time

The Argentine maestro is showing no sign of slowing down as he heads into his thirties, according to a former striker at Camp Nou

Patrick Kluivert hopes to see Barcelona star Lionel Messi cement a legacy as the greatest player of all time.

Messi has won a haul of individual and team honours, including five Ballons d'Or and four Champions Leagues, and he continues to dominate European football at the age of 30.

The Argentina international dragged Barca through their last-16 Champions League tie with Chelsea, while the Blaugrana lead La Liga, and Kluivert - himself a former star at the Catalan club - is enjoying watching Messi now as much as ever.
