This petition is primarily a response to the emotional debt that we, the fans (culés), and the entire FC Barcelona club feel towards Lionel Messi. His departure in 2021 was sudden and occurred without the possibility of a dignified farewell with the fans at Camp Nou. We want to manifest our desire to see Leo in the Barça jersey one last time and grant him and ourselves a proper and solemn goodbye. The petition is the voice of the community.
The main goal is to reach a critical mass of signatures (e.g., 1,000,000 signatures). I hope this will create strong public pressure and media discussion that could motivate the club to seek a creative and financially sustainable solution for a symbolic and short-term engagement, consistent with La Liga's strict Financial Fair Play rules. In short, the goal is to support the effort to bring back a legend.
Yes, signing the petition is absolutely FREE. This initiative is purely fan-driven and is not associated with any commercial project.
Your data is collected exclusively for two purposes: 1) To verify your signature, as we need real names to increase credibility with the club. 2) To keep you informed about the current status and progress of the petition.
Your data is 100% safe. They WILL NOT be resold to third parties or used for commercial purposes or spam. After the petition campaign ends, email addresses will be deleted (or kept only for signature archiving) and will not be used further. We handle data transparently and with respect for personal data protection.
The biggest problem is not willingness or finances, but reaching the critical mass! For our voice to have real weight with the club's management and for international media to learn about the petition, we need to gather as many signatures as possible from fans worldwide. The biggest challenge is therefore spreading the petition among people and actively sharing it on social networks. Every signature and every share counts and helps us overcome this communication problem.
