Carlos Tevez Admits That Barcelona Star Leo Messi Is 'From Another Planet'

The relationship between Carlos Tevez and Lionel Messi has always been the subject of much debate.

Tevez was left out of Argentina's World Cup squad last year, with Jonathan Wilson noting in the Guardian in February 2014: "There has been no bust-up, no specific reason for ill feeling, but Messi is known to be no great fan of Tevez."

However, Tevez is now back in the national-team picture and will, of course, face Messi in the Champions League final in June. 

Tevez's Juventus side completed a 3-2 aggregate win over Real Madrid on Wednesday to book a Berlin meeting with Messi's Barcelona. 

After the triumph at the Bernabeu, Tevez spoke of his admiration of Messi and admitted that he and his team-mates will face a big challenge against Barcelona. 

He told Sky (via Joe Wright on Goal.com):

"

Messi is the best player in the world, even in the semi-finals he did crazy things. He is a player from another planet. I never had problems with him. 

We deserve this final. Now we go to Berlin for a big challenge against Barcelona. Ours is really a team, no one would have bet on us but we've done something great.

"

Juventus will take on Barcelona on June 6 in Berlin.
