The Inter Milan midfielder spoke ahead of the Champions League clash with Barcelona

Inter Milan midfielder Borja Valero hopes Lionel Messi does not take the field against his side on Tuesday in the Champions League.

The Barcelona No 10 is an injury doubt for the clash as he continues his recovery from a broken arm.

“Messi being on the pitch changes everything. If I could choose, I hope he doesn’t play,” said Valero.

“We have to give everything to win but we can’t forget that they are favourites. “We are not scared. We’ll see what happens because it doesn’t only depend on us, but also on how they play. I think we can get a positive result, but it won’t be easy.”
