Messi: When Barca parting was confirmed, my blood ran cold

'I gave everything for this club from the first day I arrived to the last. I never imagined having to say goodbye as I didn't think about it'

SAD GOODBYE: Lionel Messi cries at the start of a press conference at the Camp Nou stadium in Barcelona on Sunday. The six-time Ballon d'Or winner Messi had been expected to sign a new five-year deal with Barcelona on August 5 but instead, after 788 games, the club announced he is leaving at the age of 34. 

A TEARFUL Lionel Messi has admitted that a move to PSG is "a possibility" as he confirmed that his glittering career at Barcelona's Camp Nou is at an end.

Confirmation that Barca were no longer able to retain his services after 21 years "made my blood ran cold," Messi admitted. "I was really sad, it was really difficult right up to now. I'm still trying to process it all. When I got home I will still feel bad, it will be even worse," he added amid reports of a two-year deal with the Paris club.
