Barcelona super star Lionel Messi is proud to be named his team’s captain and has promised to lead the Catalan club to glory.
The Barca forward gave the traditional captain's address to the Camp Nou crowd and admitted that following in the footsteps of Andres Iniesta, Xavi and Carles Puyol is an honour.
"Regarding this year, I think we have set a platform to get excited, the signings that came will help us a lot to be better than we were.
"Although last year we won La Liga and the Copa del Rey, we all got stung in the Champions League.
"We promise that we will do everything possible so that this beautiful cup returns to the Camp Nou again."
