The Turkish international made his long awaited debut for Barcelona in the Copa del Rey, and after one of Messi's strikes, the Argentine was seen talking in Turan's ear.
When asked about what Messi said to him, the midfielder revealed it was private and cannot be repeated to the public.
"I can't say what he said in my ear after scoring, it's a little inside-joke that we have between us. It's a secret," he told NTVSpor.
The former Atletico Madrid player touched on how it felt finally playing for the Spanish giants, insisting he can still improve.
"For me, it was every important to win my first game with Barcelona. I was a bit overwhelmed but otherwise, I felt very comfortable," he added.
"Playing a real game is nothing like a practice match in training. I wanted to show what I can do out on the pitch, I'm adapting but I think I can do much better."
