The viral photo of Leo Messi that confirms his love for FC Barcelona
Despite three years having passed since his departure, Lionel Messi is still a big fan of FC Barcelona and the Inter Miami player shows this in a photograph that has gone viral on social media
It's been three years since Lionel Messi left FC Barcelona. The Blaugrana's biggest star was forced to leave in the summer of 2021 and, since then, he played two seasons at Paris Saint Germain and has been at Inter Miami for a season, where he has had the opportunity to play again with his former teammates and friends from the Barça club such as Luis Suárez, Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets.
He also managed to achieve the greatest success with his national team by winning the 2022 World Cup in Qatar with Argentina, which allowed him to reaffirm his status as a legend in football. Despite the fact that his departure from Barcelona was bitter, Messi does not hold any grudge against Barcelona and is extremely grateful and proud of everything he has experienced at the club of his loves.

On several occasions, Leo has commented that he has the desire to return to Barcelona in the future, when he finally decides to retire from football. And it is that love and respect for the Blaugrana team that has made one of his photographs go viral. In it, the player is seen walking with the case where he keeps his mate and on which he has the shields of FC Barcelona and the Argentine national team printed.
Although the image is from 2023 during Inter Miami training, the photograph became a trend again this week, especially on the social network 'X', formerly Twitter. However, this is not the first time that the player was seen with said case, since he has also been seen using it at various times during his training camps with Argentina, so there is no doubt that he keeps the teams that have allowed him to shine very close to his heart.
