Keylor Navas was asked if he would sign Lionel Messi for Real Madrid.
Regarded as the greatest player of all time, Messi has won five Ballon d'Or and 29 trophies during his time at bitter rivals Barcelona, including eight LaLiga titles and four Champions League trophies.
"He is a great player, but the team-mates we have are incredible too. So no," Navas, who is determined to cement his position at the Santiago Bernabeu, told Marca.
Navas – who helped Madrid to LaLiga and Champions League glory in 2016-17 – was also asked to define outspoken Barca defender Gerard Pique.
"He is a great player and one of the best centre-backs in the world," Navas said of Pique. "I can speak about him as a footballer, as that's what I can see, but as a person I don't know him. As a footballer he is a great professional and a very good player."
