We are going to miss you so much. All of us who have always wanted to be like you and wear your famous number 10 shirt will miss you very much. Today it seems that football has died with you. You have put smiles on the faces of countless people, you have given them joy. You didn’t deserve the last days. My condolences to his family and friends. It is news of big problems.
