When a player retires from their national team, it’s usually an event that stays in the news feeds for a couple of days and then dissolves into the stream of new matches. But there are fans for whom such moments become part of their body. Argentinian Francisco Ladogana showed on his Instagram how he transferred Lionel Messi’s handwritten farewell letter to his thigh – not a retelling, but the document itself with all its ink marks and uneven lines. The result is not just a sports drawing, but a full-fledged memorial etched into the skin.
