Leo Messi is back in Barcelona. He took to the pitch at the new Camp Nou just days after receiving the first occupancy license and opening the stadium to more than 26,000 spectators for first-team training sessions. And he made it public on Monday, the day after Barça beat Celta at Balaidos and the day after he sealed the team’s place after beating Nashville in the MLS playoffs. Messi had a great game, scoring two goals. There is nothing new under the sun. Yes, to see him again in Barcelona. And ponder the nostalgia-filled message that has already captured the hearts of Barça fans.
“Last night I returned with my soul to a familiar place, a place where I was so happy, a place where you made me feel a thousand times more like the happiest person in the world. I hope that I will be able to return someday, and not only to say goodbye to the player I was never able to do…” he wrote on social networks this Monday morning. In less than 30 minutes, the publication already had more than 1 million likes.
Barcelona has not yet paid tribute to Rosario’s footballer. As he points out in his message, he was unable to say goodbye to his fans without a painful press conference.
