Messi will be inspired to emulate maradona at napoli zola predicts barcelona star will shine in champions league tie

It seems like Gianfranco Zola, the former Chelsea and Italy striker, has made a bold prediction about Lionel Messi's performance in the Champions League tie between Barcelona and Napoli.

According to Zola, Messi will be inspired to emulate the great Diego Maradona, who played for Napoli in the 1980s, and will shine in the Champions League tie. Zola believes that Messi's admiration for Maradona will motivate him to produce a spectacular display against Napoli.

It's worth noting that Messi has often spoken about the influence Maradona has had on his career, and has even worn Maradona's iconic number 10 jersey on several occasions. So, it's possible that Zola's prediction might not be entirely unfounded.

However, it remains to be seen whether Messi will indeed be able to channel his inner Maradona and lead Barcelona to victory against Napoli. The tie is sure to be an exciting one, and fans of both teams will be eagerly anticipating the action on the pitch.
