While Barcelona is preparing to leave Camp Nou, they sell parts of the club's rich history as part of the 'Memorabilia project'.
Four years after his shock room, Lionel Messi has retained a close relationship with FC Barcelona. He is the record scorer of the team, a ten times LABERA champion and four-time Champions League winner. Messi will have a place in Camp Nou forever, but his actual place is currently for sale.
The locker used by Messi is available to offer at an auction and has already reached an eye-water figure. The safe was used by the Argentinian from his first team debut in 2004/05 until his last season in 2020/21. The cabinet has a huge picture of Messi and comes complete with the couch. Auctioners Goldin even writes that the piece 'the remains of Messi's shoe plates'.
How much is Lionel Messi's cupboard worth?
At the time of writing, the best bid for Lionel Messi's Barcelona Locker is $ 300,000, but there is an extra 22% of Bieder for the happy winner to be confronted. That costs the total costs for an eye-watery $ 366,000.
And that figure will rise even further, with the auction that continues until Thursday 13 February. So far there have been six bids. Messi's Locker is the most controversial of a huge club-wide auction called the 'Memorabilia Project' that comes when Barcelona is approaching the end of their Camp Nou renovation. With the iconic stadium that gets a major renovation, there are a number of items for sale, including some other, slightly less halated lockers.
There are a total of 28 items that are currently at an auction. Pep Guardiola and Gerard Piqué, a locker that was previously used by Diego Maradona, Pep Guardiola and Gerard Piqué, is currently second in the rankings with a total price of $ 158,600. There were also lockers used by Ronaldinho, Neymar JR and Luis Suárez in the mix, as well as a piece of artificial grass from the technical area on the Pitch-Side and a quartet of match-used corner flags.
“Safes that are used by players of the years, the penalty spots of the field and corner flags and the club badges for the dugouts will all be for auction,” says the club website. “Available for those who want a small part of the history of Barça.”
