Inter Miami goalkeeper: "Messi doesn't eat breakfast or lunch with the team"

"Messi lives a bit separately from the team."

İdman.biz reports that these words were said by Dmitri Torubara, the 18-year-old goalkeeper of Inter Miami, while talking about the behavior of the team's main stars.

The Ukrainian goalkeeper, who plays for the US club's academy, gave an interview to Тribuna.com: "For example, Busquets is generally more closed off. But he is kind, sincere, always greets you at breakfast and lunch. They are all polite, and you never feel that someone thinks: "I played for Barcelona, I am better than you." They maintain the team spirit and their attitude towards young players is normal. I can't say that we are best friends, but they always greet each other, talk. None of them feels like a star from "another planet."

Jordi Alba is the heart of the team. He jokes with both young and old players, as well as Americans, and stays after training. In short, he is the heart of the collective."

What about Lionel Messi? "You've probably already heard in interviews that he was quite closed off even when he was at Barcelona. He doesn't eat breakfast or lunch at the club, he has his own personal doctor and physiotherapist, that is, he lives a little separately from the team. But in training he works fully with everyone, communicates, and is very polite. How can I say... It doesn't happen that he doesn't greet someone or acts rudely. Everyone is very kind. No superiority is felt.

Messi is very calm about taking pictures. I have never seen him say no to anyone. There are no million guards running around him. It is clear that he always has that serious bodyguard with him - you have probably seen him. He is quite famous. It seems that the whole club is afraid of him (laughs). When you look at him, you think: "Is it worth approaching, or not?"

When Messi first arrived, we were immediately told at the club: 'This is his workplace. He already has enough fans waiting for him in front of his house and at the stadium, so don't ask him to take pictures with you.' But... this is a difficult issue. When Messi is two meters away - it is impossible not to ask him for a picture. This is already a reflex. I, of course, politely asked, and he agreed."
