Munir El Haddadi has recalled a prank played on him by the team's star players during his early days at Barcelona. The young forward was excited to be in the same dressing room as stars like Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, and Neymar. This was reported by Goal.com xabar.
When the 18-year-old Munir was looking for a place to sit at the team hotel, the experienced players pointed him toward a spot that appeared to be empty. Trusting his teammates' guidance, he sat down in that seat.
However, the seat actually belonged to Lionel Messi. Munir recalls the situation as follows: "Imagine...
At 18, you are sitting in your spot and Leo comes and stares at you. They played a prank on me; I can't believe it."
Now 30, Munir made 56 appearances for Barcelona, scoring 12 goals. Since September 2025, he has been playing for the Iranian club Esteghlal.
