What happened before the summer, the way the season ended, the burofax and all that… ”, thus confided the Barcelona n ° 10, acknowledging having had difficulty digesting these events: “After that, I dragged a bit at the start of the season. “
But Lionel Messi is convinced: the page is now turned and the Argentinian may be at the end of his contract next June, he is entirely turned to Barça. “Now I’m fine and I want to fight seriously for everything that lies ahead. I’m excited. I know that the club are going through a difficult period and that everything is difficult around Barcelona, but I can’t wait ”, he added.
