Lionel Messi’s desire to leave Barcelona was the talk of the town for several weeks. However, after a long dispute between him and the club’s president, Josep Bartomeu, the Argentine talisman confirmed on Friday, rather reluctantly, that he will stay at Barcelona because he did not want to drag the club onto the pitch. After a long drama, Messi stays at Barcelona and that should be good news for his fans. However, now the focus has shifted to players who could join the 33-year-old before the start of the new season. Feeling the funny side of the whole issue, the Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), currently training in Dubai, shared a photo of their patron Virat Kohli playing soccer with his teammates, with a pretty funny legend. as if to suggest that Messi needs someone like Kohli to bring the Catalan giants back to their glory days. Like Messi, Kohli can be seen getting into position to kick the ball with his left foot. “We heard that Messi was looking for new teammates. #PlayBold # IPL2020 #WeAreChallengers,” read the RCB legend.

Virat Kohli’s soccer skills definitely don’t come close to those of Messi, who is considered by many to be the best player to ever play the sport. However, it was good enough to impress English forward Harry Kane, who commented on one of Kohli’s Instagram posts, praising his “good technique.”
Kohli, like many cricketers, loves to play soccer during warm-ups before continuing with his actual training. While Kohli’s soccer skills are not up to par to guarantee him a place in the Barcelona squad, the Spanish giants definitely need a strong character like Kohli who can take some of the pressure off Messi’s shoulders, allowing him to weave his magic. in the countryside. .
Barcelona will start their next season at home against Villarreal on September 29, while RCB has yet to get hold of its 2020 IPL match list, which is expected to be announced later on Sunday.
