Messinho reveals why he wants to play for Barcelona

Buzzing talent Willian Estevao, also known as Messinho, has revealed his love and admiration for Barcelona.

The 16-year-old rising star has said he watched all Barcelona’s games and hopes to play for the Blaugrana.

“I watch almost all Barca games. I’m a fan of the club. I have a great admiration for the players who play there, and I hope to be there too,” Messinho told Mundo Deportivo.

“My biggest dream is playing for Barcelona, which is one of the best clubs in the world. I was born watching Neymar, Messi and Suarez play at Barcelona, and that’s the dream I have too.”

The youngster was recently presented with Pedri’s Barca jersey – and he was overjoyed.

The 16-year-old Palmeiras U20 player is a right winger who can also play on the left or as an attacking midfielder.

Messinho could only join Barcelona in 2025 when he turns 18, and Barca and some top European clubs are said to be keeping tabs on the starlet.
