Laporta announces plans to build a statue for Messi and hold a farewell match

Messi has left Barcelona, but discussions and rumors surrounding his name continue. Now Laporta has revealed plans for the future.

Details: President Laporta stated that they plan to build a statue near the stadium and organize a farewell match.

Quote: "The topic of discussion around Lionel Messi is that we want to build a statue for him and hold a memorial match once the stadium is completed," he said.

Xavi also stated that Messi will not return to Camp Nou because Joan Laporta does not want it, not because of La Liga.

Reminder: Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick used the opportunity during the post-match press conference after the clash with Athletic Bilbao to clarify the situation surrounding his most discussed tactical feature.
