As per The Athletic, Gaggioli let last year know that he had informed Rexach in December 2000 that in the event that they couldn't focus on marking Messi — the teen would be proposed to different clubs, including Genuine Madrid.
Gaggioli was welcomed by Barcelona's chief to choose for Messi however because of the lack of time to consent to an arrangement officially. The arrangement was to compose on a napkin and take the marks of the multitude of gatherings in the agreement, which would later turn legitimate.
The agrement on the napkin read: "In Barcelona, on December 14, 2000, and within the sight of the respectable man (the specialist, Josep Maria) Minguella and Horacio (Gaggioli), Carles Rexach, specialized secretary of FCB, commits under his obligation, regardless of the assessment of other people who are against marking Lionel Messi, as long as the concurred charges are kept up with."
"This is quite possibly of the most exciting thing I have at any point dealt with," Ian Ehling, head of fine books and compositions at Bonhams New York said, adding "indeed, it's a paper napkin, yet the popular napkin was at the commencement of Lionel Messi's vocation."
"It changed the existence of Messi, the eventual fate of FC Barcelona, and was instrumental in giving probably the most superb snapshots of football to billions of fans all over the planet."
Gaggioli while reviewing the occasion named it a "superb second" saying: "That napkin broke the gridlock."
"My legal advisors checked it out. The napkin had everything: my name, his name, the date. It's notarised. It was an authoritative report."
"It'll be a piece of me until the end of my life. The napkin will continuously be next to me. I live in Andorra and I've kept the napkin in a protected inside a bank."
