Former Barcelona Star Strips, Gifts Fan Kits

BY MWANAHABARI REPORTER

This is the moment former Barcelona footballer Ivan Rakitic stripped to his pants to gift a fan his Sevilla short and shirt.

Rakitic who left Barcelona in 2020 to join Servilla was playing before Barcelona fans for the first time since leaving the famous club.

The fan will no doubt go home very happy after receiving the special gift – delivered in style.

With most of his flesh showing, and only a white underwear covering his dignity, Rakitic strolled across the pitch before disappearing into the tunnel.

Thousands, probably millions, watched in amazement as Rakitic, a midfield maestro for an Invincible Barcelona alongside Lionel Messi, Iniesta and the ilk, walked away after gifting the fan.

The 34-year-old player won the treble with Barcelona in 2015 – and was an integral part of the team that went on to conquer the world.

Barcelona fans applauded Rakitic following his gesture.

Although it was not a happy return for Rakitic after his team Sevilla lost to Pedro’s strike – his gesture has melted hearts across the football world.

Rakitic who won 13 trophies in six years with Barcelona, including La Liga on four occasions, was  succeeded in Barcelona’s midfield by young Pedro.
