Speaking after being honored at the 2023 Golden Ball Awards, Lionel Messi gave many words of gratitude to Barcelona. The Argentinian star shared:
“Of course I follow Barca. This is the club that I love and will love forever.”
“Barcelona has a great squad. They are ready to be able to fight for the Champions League title. I have no doubt that they are title candidates, but they don’t need to put pressure on themselves.” .”

Messi still loves Barca.
“It was a strange feeling when I left Barca. After what I went through there, I didn’t want to leave like that. Barca is my home. I love this club and admire the fans pill, I would be grateful to come back here again.”
“I want to say goodbye to Barca fans in a different way. I deserve to say goodbye to the people who have shared happy and sad times with me.”
“I always and will always follow Barcelona. This is the club of my life.”
