Messi’s end at Barça: an unfinished story
The relationship between Lionel Messi and FC Barcelona is one of the most legendary in the history of soccer. The Argentine made his debut with the first team on October 16, 2004, when he was just 17 years old, and during 17 seasons he played 778 official matches, scoring 672 goals and winning 35 titles, including ten Leagues, four Champions League and seven Copa del Rey.
His departure in August 2021 was as abrupt as it was painful. The club, suffocated by economic problems, could not renew his contract under the rules of LaLiga’s Financial Fair Play. Messi, in tears, said goodbye in a press conference without being able to do so on the field, in front of his fans: that farewell left an open wound in both the player and the supporters.
Today, every gesture, every word, every publication of his revives the longing for a farewell that the Camp Nou still owes to the best footballer in its history.
