@FootynewsBack in 2019, ÍKER CASILLAS faced a heart attack that landed him in the hospital for urgent care. The very next day, while he was still recovering inside, an unknown number called and it turned out to be Leo Messi reaching out. The striker explained that Piqué had passed along his contact info because he simply wanted to check on Casillas's health and sent flowers to the hospital. That gesture left CASILLAS genuinely shocked since there was no obligation for Messi to do anything like that given they weren't even friends at the time.
