Zlatan Ibrahimovic has showered encomiums on Barcelona
forward, Lionel Messi, for winning the FIFA Ballon d'Or (European Footballer of the Year award) four times in a
row.

"He is the best player in the world right now," Ibrahimovic told
reporters at a press conference. "He has won four Ballon d'Ors. They
should rename this award and call it Messi.
The 31-year-old also stated that he thinks Barca play the best football in the world.
Ibrahimovic himself has been in remarkable form for the Ligue 1 leaders, but says it is his team mates who should take the praise.
"It is thanks to my team-mates that I was able to play that well. We are a team. Being No.1, this is not important," he said.
PSG host the Catalans yesterday April 2 in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final clash. The match ended 2-2.
