JAKARTA - The Croatian midfielder who is now in Sevilla's uniform, Ivan Rakitic, almost came home naked after defending his team against Barcelona. The incident occurred in the 30th week of the 2021/2022 Spanish League which took place at Camp Nou, Monday, April 4 in the morning WIB.
Rakitic is a former Barcelona player who still has a place in the hearts of the fans. No wonder his presence at Camp Nou, even to defend Sevilla, still gets a warm welcome from Blaugrana fans.
The moment Rakitic came home almost naked came after the long whistle sounded the end of the match. Based on a video uploaded by a journalist from Barcelona @AndriaAlbets, at that time, Blaugrana fans cheered Rakitic.
Without hesitation, the 34-year-old player immediately approached the stands of Barcelona supporters. Rakitic was seen giving a jersey to a Barcelona fan he approached.
However, not long after, another supporter came to Rakitic and asked for his pants. Without thinking, Rakitic also took off the pants and gave them to the fans on the sidelines.
As a result, because his pants and jersey were asked by Barca fans, the Swiss-born player finally walked out of Camp Nou almost naked because he was only wearing underwear.
“Rakitic ended up in his underpants after giving shirts and pants to some fans from the Camp Nou animation stand. He won 13 titles at Barcelona, a player that the Catalans love very much," wrote the owner of the account accompanying Rakitic's video.
