Melo has faced Messi many times, whether in international football or at the club level. He said he would tell his grandchildren about the loss of Argentina, including Messi from Brazil. Melo, who has played for Juventus, Inter Milan, Galatasaray, and Almeria, is playing the last season of his playing career.
"I have played against Messi many times. He is special because if you kick him, he will be stronger than before. I tried to fight him when I was playing for Brazil, but I didn't succeed," he said. "He's not afraid. I think he is one of the top 3 players in football history. He is amazing."

Melo also recalled the game against Argentina. He said, "I still remember playing in Rosario. That was a very important game for Argentina. We won that game by 3-1. Veron was also in Argentina. He is my idle."
Veron said "Messi couldn't do much in that game. I will tell this story to my children and grandchildren. We kept Messi silent at least in that game."
He also praised another young Argentine star, Lautaro Martinez. He sees Martinez as the star of the future. The Inter forward is expected to reach Barcelona next season.
"Martinez works extra hard. They score a lot of goals. He also plays for the team like Gravial Jesus," he said, "I think he has a good future. He is strong. He is suitable for going to Barcelona. It's great to play with the best forwards in the world like Suarez and on top of that with Messi and Neymar."
