FC Barcelona brought out several high-class players such as Bojan Krkic who came to consider him the new Messi but now he has decided to hang up his boots, according to what Gerard Piqué commented on his program. The player was at Vissel Kobe in Asia, sharing a team with Andrés Iniesta.

Unfortunately his career was cut short because he weighed down the FC Barcelona shirt and carrying a backpack to be considered the new Messi. "At the age of 17 my life changed completely, my body told me to stop," he told Diario Marca. That is why he began to lose space in the international concert and now he will leave soccer.

"The striker, who won 10 titles with Barça, has also played for Roma, Milan, Ajax Amsterdam, Stoke City, Mainz, Stoke City, Alavés and Montreal", rescued the aforementioned medium, recalling that he was also the first Spaniard to score in the major leagues in Europe, Spain, Italy, England and Germany.

Bojan Krkic broke several records in his career as a player

Bojan Krkic scored more than 800 goals according to information from Diario Marca and also surpassed Lionel Messi's record for a young player to score his first goal. "At 17 years and 51 days old, he scored his first goal with Barça in LaLiga, surpassing Leo Messi in precocity", highlighted the Spanish media about the Spanish's career.
