Messi's Tribute
Sharing on social media, Messi shared a heartfelt tribute to Vilanova, remembering him as both a coach and a friend. Alongside a picture of himself and Vilanova, Messi wrote, "10 years already, we won't forget you Tito."
Vilanova played a significant role in Messi's career, guiding Barcelona to a La Liga title in the 2012-13 season, during which the team set a new league record of 100 points. However, Vilanova's tenure was cut short due to a recurrence of gland cancer, and he tragically passed away just one year later.
Legacy and Influence
Vilanova's impact on Messi and his legacy at Barcelona remains profound. Reports suggest that Vilanova played a crucial role in convincing Messi to stay with the club during a period of uncertainty.
According to Marca, Vilanova and Messi had lengthy discussions in his final days, ultimately influencing Messi's decision to remain at Barcelona.
