Khaberni - Lionel Messi confessed that he went through a period during which he was undergoing psychological treatment due to the immense pressures he lived through.
The Argentine star confirmed in an interview with cm de luzu where he stated that he is "naturally a sensitive person, and that dealing with emotions has never been easy, even for a legend of his stature." This confession has cast light on the human side of the player, whom audiences are used to seeing calm on the pitch, yet he lives with complex emotional states internally like anyone else.
Messi clarified that he doesn’t remember the last time he cried, indicating that sensitivity is part of his personality, and that certain simple situations can stir his emotions, such as watching movies, where he admits that he sometimes cries without shame. This human aspect is also reflected in his everyday life outside football, emphasizing that he spends a lot of time on the TikTok app, watching almost all kinds of content, especially when he's free.
The Argentine player humorously touched on the clips that have been created using artificial intelligence, noting that he watched videos where he appeared as if he was being arrested by the police, confirming that he enjoyed these clips and found them amusing, in a scene reflecting his reconciliation with digital satire and his proliferation in a virtual world that continually innovates.
Speaking of his football career, Messi recalled his early beginnings, confirming that his transfer to Barcelona was not a purchase transaction as is the case with major players, but he was a child at the age of eleven or twelve, and it wasn't sensible for any club to pay for a child at that age.
He explained that he spent most of his life in Barcelona, before he left later due to circumstances that went the way everyone knows, without ever needing a club to pay money to sign him.
Lionel Messi emphasized that he has always remained true to himself, guided by the values he learned at home with his father, and then at Barcelona, which not only made him a player but also contributed to his personal development, particularly in terms of principles and values. He mentioned that the Catalan club played a pivotal role in his maturation as a player and as a person.
Regarding his personal life, Messi talked about his relationship with his wife, explaining that they have known each other since they were six years old, and that they were very close from an early age, before their relationship went through different phases, then evolved later with the advent of social media, where they began communicating through emails, video clips, and chat programs, which has helped strengthen the relationship over time.
In another aspect of his everyday life, Messi talked about his relationship with football within his family, confirming that football is present throughout their day and that his son Ciro often goes to the club for training, noting that among his three children, he is the most passionate about details, showmanship, and the little things that reflect a special love for the game, a scene that reflects the continuation of the football passion within the legend’s family.
