‘Messi is fired up and working his socks off’ – Sergi Roberto sees ‘desire’ in Barcelona talisman


 A Camp Nou colleague of the mercurial Argentine claims to have seen no dip from the South American on the back of his efforts to leave the club

Lionel Messi may have wanted out of Barcelona over the summer but he is now “fired up” and “working his socks off” for the good of the collective cause at Camp Nou, says Sergi Roberto.


A testing end to the 2019-20 campaign saw the six-time Ballon d’Or winner push for the exits in Catalunya.


Messi had grown disillusioned with life at the only club side he has represented in a remarkable career to date.
