On the evening of January 25, Beijing time, Barca and team reporter Alfre Martinez revealed a fierce news, Argentine superstar Messi has broken the friendship with Barca's former teammate Pique, and the two are now strangers.
Without being called up to the Argentine national team, Messi took advantage of the rare national team matchday holiday to return to Barcelona from Paris and dine with two former Barca teammates, Busquets and Alba, at a Japanese restaurant called "Sushi99" in downtown Barcelona.
During the dinner, the 3 even met Barca coach Xavi. It turned out that the restaurant was near Harvey's residence. Harvey's birthday party participants were his wife and relatives and friends of both sides, so Messi and the other three did not join halfway, but the four still chatted for a long time.
It is worth noting that Messi, Busquets Alba, Xavi and others did not invite Pique to the dinner, and Messi was the captain of Barca's four teams when he was in the team. Alfre Martinez revealed that it was Messi who voluntarily refused to invite Pique to dinner. The relationship between the two has changed, and their friendship broke down after Messi left Barca for Paris.
Last summer, Messi was forced to leave the club after failing to secure a new contract with Barca after his contract with Barca expired. Pique, who was previously rumored to be leaving, chose to cut his salary sharply and stay in the team. This move is also seen by the outside world as Pique's choice to take sides with La Porta. There are even rumors that Pique played a role in messi's departure process, and on the issue of Messi's departure, Pique not only did not express support for Messi, but also said some words that made Messi chill, which also caused the two former friends to turn against each other.
