If Blackburn Signed Zidane explores football’s greatest ‘what if’ moments and dives into the multiverse to put things right on the timeline. In episode seven, host Specs Gonzalez is joined by YouTuber Thogden along with co-host Tego Sigel to ask ‘What if Lionel Messi had opted to play for Spain?’

Specs works his magic to change football history…
