Surprise. That is what Lionel Messi felt when he learned of the scandal involving Barcelona after it was discovered that the Catalan club had hired a technology company to defame political adversaries and their own players on social networks.
"The truth grabbed me a bit of surprise because I wasn't here and I was just traveling. When I arrived I found out a little about everything. The president told us the same thing he made public, the same thing he said at the press conference. What was the situation? , what had happened and I can't say much more. Just as they know everything he said, he told the captains in private, "Messi explained in an interview with Mundo Deportivo .
In that sense, the Argentine asked for patience until all that was said was clarified, although he said that it seemed "strange" that Barcelona was involved in such a scandal.
"The truth is that I see it strange that something like this happens. But they also said that there would be evidence. We cannot say much and wait to see what happens with all this. I really, it seemed a strange subject."
