Former Argentina and Barcelona defender Gabriel Milito has said that the Catalan football club coached by Luis Enrique is "arguably the best team of all time" and is a "strong candidate" to win all competitions.
Milito, who attended this Wednesday the training of Atletico Madrid run by his compatriot Diego Simeone, said that while there are still many La Liga games, Barcelona have been at very high levels for more than 18 months, adding that Enrique's outfit is possibly the best team of all time, reports Efe.
The Argentinian acknowledged that the team of Enrique is "similar" to the one that was run by Pep Guardiola, current coach of Bayern Munich.
Milito played for Barcelona under Dutch coach Frank Rijkaard and the Spanish Guardiola, playing 72 matches and scoring two goals between 2007 and 2011.
