Cesc Fabregas: It's 'Probably Impossible' for There to Be Another Lionel Messi

Monaco midfielder Cesc Fabregas believes we may never see another player of Lionel Messi's calibre again.

The Spaniard played with Messi at Barcelona between 2011 and 2014, and they also played together at the club's La Masia academy before Fabregas left for Arsenal in 2003.

He spoke to AS' Aritz Gabilondo about whether world football will ever see another player like his former team-mate:

"I think that's probably impossible. We've seen the likes of Ronaldo and Ronaldinho, amazing players, but Messi has been the best for 15 years.
