Messi, Suarez go emotional as Arturo Vidal leaves Barcelona
Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez have shared an emotional message to bid Arturo Vidal farewell as he leaves Barcelona.
Vidal has concluded deals with Inter Milan as he returns to the Italian Serie A where he once had a stint with Juventus.
Bidding him farewell on social media, Messi and Suarez compared playing against Vidal in his Juventus days to having him as a Barcelona teammate.
Messi shared on Instagram: “I only knew you from facing up against each other and you always seemed a phenomenon, but after I was lucky enough to get to know you personally and you surprised me even more.
“They were two years sharing a lot and you made yourself noticed a lot. The dressing room will miss you, Arturo.”
Luis Suarez also shared to bid Vidal farewell: “To have you as an opponent was unbearable because of how great you are as a player, but to have you as a team-mate, friend and to know you as a person, you are even greater!”
