When Assulin spoke to The Guardian in 2021, Assulin admitted: “You like to compare in football. It is something you do all the time, and for me it’s a big compliment, but but [Lionel] Messi is the biggest footballer in history.
“Sometimes it is not a good thing if you take it wrong because the expectation insists that you go to the pitch all the time and do the same as Messi.
“In which club I went, they saw that I was compared to Messi, so they thought I would be Messi and scored 50 goals a year, so that this comparison was not so positive at that time.”
Assulin had the world at his feet after scoring 10 goals for Barca B in the 2007/08 season to help Guardiola win his first title as a manager.

Life after the Premier League football
What does Gai Assulin do now?
Assulin, who had hope four years ago to find another club, added to the Guardian: “Football is something irreplaceable.
“Everything I did in my career is obviously connected to the football that I learned in Barcelona and was particularly trained by PEP.
“I grew up in a small town as a child in Israel and my dream was to play football for the first team for a professional club.
“I gave everything with my father who pushed me the most because he really believed in me.
“I never thought that I would play for the first team in Barcelona for a million years – it was so far away from my dream.
“I only dreamed of playing for a normal club, but things got better and better, so I achieved it so that it always stays with me.
“I was the youngest player who represented the Israel national team, which is an incredible achievement.
“If you don’t find a club, there is a lot of thoughts in your head:” What should I do? Should I stop? ‘But it’s not an option for me because football is. “
