Dibu Martínez didn’t want to bid farewell to Messi with a message on social media. He did it with his head.
Before the friendly against Benin at the Monumental, the goalkeeper appeared with a large “M” tattooed just above the nape of his neck. The design came from the national team’s official barber.
The letter isn’t accidental: it’s the initial of Messi’s surname and also the logo that represents him around the world.
The goalkeeper shared a video of the result and ended it in his own way: a smile and a kiss to camera. It was Messi’s final night wearing the Albiceleste shirt, and Dibu chose to wear it on him.
