Jordi Alba Denies Discussing Departure With Messi

Former Barcelona player Jordi Alba openly stated that he never discussed Lionel Messi's departure from the club with him. "I never asked Messi how he felt after leaving Barcelona.

He hasn’t spoken to me about it either. I think it wasn’t easy for him.

But I believe it would be incredible to show him respect. Not only for Leo’s legacy but also because it’s something every Barcelona fan expects," Alba said in an interview with the publication "Barca Universal."

Lionel Messi played for Barcelona from 2000 to 2021. He appeared in a total of 778 matches for the club’s main team, scoring 672 goals and providing 303 assists.

The 38-year-old Argentine footballer is currently playing for the United States club Inter Miami. Read “Zamin” on Telegram!
