This Sunday, the Argentine star addressed the controversial request to leave Barcelona last summer and criticized the former president of the Catalan club, Josep María Bartomeu.
Last summer was marked by a soap opera starring Lionel Messi. The Argentine star asked to leave Barcelona, the club he has represented since 2000/2001, for “burofax” (a service used for the urgent delivery of documents with proof of delivery). Much painting and some controversy later, Messi ended up coming back and staying, but he does not stop criticizing Josep María Bartomeu, the then president of the Catalans, who resigned in October.
“I would do it all over again,” he said in an interview with the Spanish-language channel “La Sexta.” “In the previous six months I had told the president that I was leaving, I asked him for help. And he always said no. I am very grateful for everything the club has given me, I love the club and the city. when you thought you had completed a cycle, you needed to change. I knew that this year would be a transition, with new people, and I wanted to continue fighting for more titles, for the Champions League, for the championship. It was the moment of change. I could go out and I could do it forever. But President Bartomeu did not want to and began to pass information to make it seem that I was the bad guy. But I’m calm, “added the 33-year-old, emphasizing that” he needs a psychologist. “
“I should have gone and never went. It’s hard for me to take this step knowing that I need it, they even insisted that I go, but I keep things to myself, I don’t share much of what happens. I know I need to go to a psychologist so I do, for the day to day, for what I have to do, but I don’t do it ”.
Messi, who recently broke Pele’s record, also addressed the death of his childhood idol, Maradona, on November 25: “I was at home, a message came from my father, I turned on the television and knew … Madness, I could not believe it. We knew that Diego was not well, but nobody imagined it. It was a terrible thing, “he said.
