Barcelona ace Leo Messi has sung the praises of Riqui Puig and Juan Miranda.

Both youngsters have seen first team action this season.

Messi said, "They have been training with us for a whole and you see they are different players.

"The club did well in bringing them up to train with us. They will grow more and that's good the club are using people from the youth academy because for a while nobody came. Going back to that model is important for the academy and the club."
