Argentinian legend Lionel Messi has criticised on Friday the club's treatment with striker Luis Suarez and the way of his departure from Camp Nou.
"I no longer surprised by the club's treatment of the striker," Messi said according to BBC.
Suarez has joined Atletico Madrid after being told by new Barca's coach Ronald Koeman's that he is out of his plans for the upcoming season. .
Earlier this month, Messi said he would stay at Barca despite wanting to leave because he felt he had no option.
He added that he felt he had been deceived by the club president Josep Maria Bartomeu.
In a post on Instagram, Messi paid tribute to Suarez, saying it will be "strange" to see him "with another shirt and much more to face you".
"You deserved a send-off matching who you are - one of the most important players in the club's history, achieving important things both as a group and inpidually," the 33-year-old star said.
"Not to get thrown out like you have been. But the truth is at this point nothing surprises me," he added.
