Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola believes that Roberto Baggio was the ‘most talented player’ he’s ever played alongside.

The Spaniard attended an event in Italy in front of over 3,500 students and spoke about his experience in Serie A as a footballer.

When asked about the most talented player he ever played with, the former Roma and Brescia star responded as quoted by Fooball Italia by saying: “Surely Roberto Baggio.”

Guardiola played alongside Baggio at Brescia under the late Carlo Mazzone in 2001.
