The current coach of Barcelona Ernesto Valverde, who indeed is a great coach has talked about Messi and how much pain he has suffered in a while.
The balon dor winner has struggled with injuries even if he hasn't hesitated to play as soon as he gets his chance. Messi has suffered a groin injury since he returned from the World Cup of 2018.
This is what his coach said about this:
“We think it’s OK but he has been coping with these issues for a long time.
“We were taking care of it before Christmas. We have tried to make the pain subside and we will continue doing it. Now he has had a few days of rest.
“We do everything naturally, we talk to him after suffering a little problem in training and we do everything together. We make decisions together and talk to him to see how he is like I do with others,” he told a press conference.
