“I’m totally devastated,” said Christian Garcia, who arrived outside Messi’s home wearing a Barcelona jersey with Messi’s name and the number 10 on the back.

“To see a player I always follow, he’s a role model for me, and it hurts me a lot that he’s going now,” said Christian Garcia.

Messi said he had agreed to a 50 per cent pay cut to sign a new contract to stay at Barcelona, ​​but that this was not possible due to the Spanish league’s financial control rules and the club’s more than 100 100 million in debt.
