Newell’sthe favorite team of Lionel Messi, he also gave La Pulce a number ten shirt with his surname on it. In this case, the jacket came from the hands of another Leprosy idol, Maximiliano Rodríguez, who as a member of the 2014 World Second Team was Saturday in the Ezeiza property that has come to bear the name of the Albiceleste captain.

Other teams that had done it before were River, delivered by president Jorge Brito and with Marcelo Gallardo, and San Lorenzo, by Nico Blandi.

The last time we saw Leo with Newell’s was after the death of Diego Maradona. On that occasion, he wore a shirt worn by Diez in his short spell with Rosario’s team, in the second half of 1993. The forward was asked several times if he would like to return to play for Newell’s, the team from which he left in Barcelona as a teenager. Even if he never gave certainties, he didn’t even close the door.

Although not a few institutions have imprinted Messi’s surname on the torso of his shirt and sent it to the number 10 of the Argentina national team, the photo with the club of his loves seems to have another connotation. It’s that, if there’s a remote possibility that Messi can play again in Argentina, that place seems to be none other than Newell’s Old Boys, the place where he was born. Sure, that’s the work of ants and this mime is just one more crumb in the construction of that chimera.
