Paris Saint-Germain defender Maxwell has highlighted the role Barcelona played in his development.
The Brazil international, who spent three seasons with the Catalan giants, admits he learnt a lot during his spell in Spain.
“Barca was a real lesson in football for me. It was also a school on a tactical level and I arrived there at a fantastic time from a sporting perspective,” he told Paris Saint-Germain’s official website.
Maxwell won ten major honours with Barcelona, before being sold to PS-G for €3.5 million in January 2012.
