The post included not only photographs, but also touching text highlighting the player's deep connection with the club and its people. Messi wrote: “Last night I returned to a place that I miss with all my heart. A place where I was immensely happy, where you made me feel like the happiest person in the world a thousand times.”
However, the paragraph that attracted the most attention and headlines was the last one, in which the forward does not hide his desire to return.
