Barcelona revealed earlier in the week that they wouldn’t be renewing the player’s contract due to financial restrictions, meaning he would be leaving the Catalan giants after 21 years.

On Sunday, he held his final press conference at the Nou Camp to say goodbye to the club, his former teammates and the fans.

An emotional Messi was in tears as soon as he got onto the stage, before delivering an emotional speech that concluded with a long standing ovation from those inside the studio, his teammates and coaches.

His speech read; ‘I was so convinced to stay here at Barcelona. This is my home,our home. I wanted to stay at Barca and it was the plan and today I have to say goodbye after my entire life here. No words to add. Thank you, everyone. Barca made my dream come true.’

My new contract was done. All done. I wanted to stay and when I came back from holidays,it was done…and then it’s how Laporta explained it. At the last minute,with everything by Laliga,it couldn’t happen and it was a shock to us. There was no problem with Barcelona really. I was okay with the club. We had agreement on everything,I was convinced to stay. But,it was not possible because of Laliga rules. I’m really sad because I didn’t want to leave this club. I love Barcelona and I wanted to stay,my contract was ready. I did everything in my possibility to stay.’

He also confirmed PSG is his possible destination.
