Former opponent: Messi is incredibly approachable! He once wished me a goal in his first appearance in the fight!

May 21. Argentine veteran Terrejo, who is effective at Vallecano, recently accepted an interview with Rodrigo Rea, talking about the two most important figures of the Argentine national team at this stage, head coach Scaloni and national team leader Messi. Because these are all peers and compatriots that Terrejo has met in La Liga.

Trejo once played for another La Liga team, Mallorca, more than ten years ago. Specifically in the 2009 season, Scaloni had not retired and was playing football in Mallorca, and he was a teammate. Traejo was a young player at the time, while Scaloni was a veteran. Trejo said Scaloni was a very good person, upright and kind.

And the peer and compatriot who impressed Trejo is Messi, because although they have never been teammates in La Liga, they have been opponents in La Liga for a long time. Messi is closer to children and compatriots, while Terejo is a fellow Messi, so he gets more attention from Messi.

Trejo said that he once played for Getafe (a La Liga club again) and scored a goal in this team's debut, but his opponent was not Barcelona where Messi was. When Getafe played against Barcelona, ​​Messi was substitute at the time, but he still remembered Trejo's first goal. So when I was warming up during the halftime break, Messi walked to Terejo and congratulated him on his debut goal at his new club. Terrejo was moved and nervous, and he said Messi was really approachable and incredible.

Trejo also said that he met Messi before the 2022 World Cup and chatted with him. Terrejo believes Messi will definitely win the World Cup. Terrejo lamented that even if he didn't know Messi, he would have met too late for the first time. Messi was as kind as a friend he had known for his whole life. I told my club teammates that they didn't believe that such a big-name super giant would be so friendly. Such character and charm make Messi even greater in Trejo's heart. So there is a saying: Messi is greater than Messi who is a player.
