Paris star Dembele recalled his experience of playing for Barcelona and playing side by side with Messi.
Dembele said: "I have established a very good relationship with Messi since day one, and my locker room cabinet is right next to Messi. He gave me a lot of advice and he seemed to know instinctively what you want. Messi also told me that if you want to achieve your dream, you have to take it seriously. Since then, I have been observing and learning how he performed on the court.
" Messi has a very good sense of position, whether it is playing at the 10th or 9th. And he seems to be invisible on the court. Sometimes you can't see him for four to five minutes, but as long as Messi gets the ball, he instinctively knows what to do next.
"Messi can predict when Alba will intervene and cooperate with him and when will he pass the ball to him. Messi has a deep understanding of football and his position is also great. Everyone knows what Messi can do with his feet."
