Hi community!
The club learned this Monday of his visit to the facilities on Sunday night.
The image of Leo Messi at the newly renovated Camp Nou is the big news story this Monday. Not Barcelona's victory against Celta Vigo yesterday, nor Lewandowski's three goals, nor the international players... the main focus of the day is that the Argentine returned last night to what was once his home. Taking advantage of his absence while with the national team in Alicante, the number 10 wanted to see firsthand the state of the remodeled Les Corts stadium. It was a private visit, but the player wanted to share his feelings and excitement with the fans.

In fact, Barcelona was unaware that Leo Messi intended to visit the newly renovated Camp Nou. They found out this Monday morning. The player went to the facilities and, upon being recognized, the security staff granted him entry without any problem. The club, however, made it clear that the Argentine is always welcome and even expressed this through a post on social media a few hours after Messi uploaded the photos. It was the player himself who made his visit public.
Leo Messi enjoyed the renovated stadium where he experienced so many glorious nights and afternoons. In fact, the footballer posted pictures of both the exterior and interior of the Camp Nou, and especially of himself walking on the pitch. It's been more than four years since the international star and Barcelona parted ways, in August 2021. But the Barça fans haven't forgotten him.
"Last night I returned to a place I miss with all my heart. A place where I was immensely happy, where you made me feel a thousand times the happiest person in the world. I hope that one day I can return, and not just to say goodbye as a player, as I never could…," wrote an emotional, and enigmatic, Leo Messi on social media, along with several photos of himself at the remodeled Camp Nou.
See You soon!
