During an appearance in the Catalan media 3cat, Joan Laporta spoke on several subjects linked to FC Barcelona, including his role as president and the emblematic figures of the club. Asked who was the real Barça legend between Cruyff and Messi, he answered in favor of the Dutchman. He also spoke about his relationship with Lionel Messi, which had deteriorated at the time of Pulga's free departure to Paris Saint-Germain.
“We had a very good relationship for a long time. When we didn't renew her contract, she deteriorated a bit. And then we more or less got it back. We hope to be able to pay him the great tribute he deserves”he explained. Currently a player for Inter Miami in MLS, the Argentinian is surrounded by several former Barça stars, such as Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets and Luis Suárez. We can imagine a friendly match between the two teams, especially since the full-back and the midfielder have already announced their retirement at the end of the season.
