Mastantuono: I'm not Messi and I'm not Real Madrid's worst signing;

Real Madrid midfielder Franco Mastantuono has responded to criticism directed at him.

Idman.Biz reports that the Spanish media published the footballer's views.

The Argentine international distinguished himself in the 7th round of the Champions League group stage match against Monaco (6:1).

"I understand that. Since childhood, I've been both lucky and unlucky that people have always talked about me. They could call me the new Messi, a disaster in Real Madrid's history, or the worst signing. I don't consider myself Messi and I never will be, but at the same time, I don't believe I'm the worst signing in Real Madrid's history.

I work hard to be in good shape and to be the best version of myself. Aggressive criticism hurts, but we are in the elite of football, this is how the system works here," said F. Mastantuono.
