The departure of Barcelona hit Lionel Messi hard.

That was more than clear during the press conference in which he said goodbye: Leo was totally sad, with tears in his eyes, for not being able to continue in the club of his entire life.

And it seems that the situation affected him so much that, when removing his belongings from the locker room and after greeting all his teammates,

on the 10th he forgot an object that is related to Boca Juniors.

The Spanish journalist Javier Miguel detailed in the newspaper AS that the Argentine forgot about his double-door wardrobe

 the trophy for best player of the Joan Gamper Cup of the year 2018

In that year,

Barcelona played against Guillermo Barros Schelotto's Boca

and the match ended with a victory for Blaugrana by a resounding 3-0 with goals from Malcolm, Messi and Rafinha Alcántara.

In addition to converting, the captain of the Argentine National Team gave an assist that reached him in the 45 minutes he played to win the MVP award.

Once the game was over, Leo decided to leave it outside the locker as it was "more bulky and bulky than expected" according to the Spanish newspaper, but when he removed the belongings he had left for the return from his vacation, the winner of 6 football balls Oro did not remember to take it.

It is expected that the club will return the trophy to his residence in Castelldefels or remain in the institution as one more memory of Messi's time at Barcelona.

With the departure of Messi, the Barcelona dressing room was immediately renewed since any trace of the 10 was removed although they did not assign any player to wear his shirt, at least until August 31, which is when the transfer market closes.

In turn, the Catalan club erased the face of the Rosario from the gigantography that was on the facade of the stadium and left Marc Ter Stegen, Gerard Piqué, Antoine Griezmann and Frank De Jong.
