Lionel Messi has become one of the central figures in the "Barcelona" presidential elections, even against his will. The club's former football player is used directly or indirectly in the campaigns of all individuals running for president. Sport24.az reports that "Marca" has published information about this.
According to the source, Messi has clearly stated from the beginning of the process that he does not want to participate in the election campaigns. Nevertheless, the candidates continue to exploit his name and image for their own interests.
It should be noted that the next presidential election of the "Barcelona" club will be officially held on March 15, 2026.
