Barcelona midfielder Ivan Rakitic says Barcelona teammates Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar are “the closest best friends in the world,” explaining their successon the field and Barca’s strong locker-room environment.
“Although they are different characters, on the pitch there is pure harmony between them,” the midfielder toldCroatian publication Jutarnji List. “It may sound like an exaggeration, but Messi, Suarez and Neymar are the closest best friends in the world and possibly the best [trident] in the history offootball. We’re fighting to avoid resting on our laurels. There’s no possibility of such an attitude entering the dressing room. Sometimes we’re spectacular, we succeed and achievemany goals, but we still feel we can improve. You can always improve.”
