Atletico Madrid striker Luis Suarez said on Friday he does not understand how "people could be so evil" to leak the contract of his friend and former Barcelona teammate Lionel Messi.

Spanish newspaper El Mundo controversially published details of Barcelona's contract with Messi, showing the Argentine will be paid up to 555 million euros (Rs 4858cr) over four years. Barcelona, who were in a bitter standoff with Messi in the summer, have denied they leaked the contract.
Suarez, who won a Champions League and four La Liga titles playing alongside Messi at the Camp Nou, said: "I don't understand why people are so evil as to make something public that is so private, such as Leo's contract. Especially given all he has done for the club. "What Leo has given to Barcelona, no player has ever given to a club," the Uruguay international told Onda Cero radio.
