Sergino Dest says he is still trying to learn as much as he can from Lionel Messi as he adjusts to a new system at Barcelona that allows him to take more risks.
Before heading to U.S. men's national team camp for friendlies against Jamaica and Northern Ireland, Dest scored two goals in Barcelona's 6-1 win over Real Sociedad.
Those goals were Dest's first two La Liga finishes, making him the highest-scoring American in Spain's top flight, one ahead of USMNT teammate Yunus Musah.
