Lautaro's Hug with Messi Sparks Jealousy in French Star
Just one photograph on social media was enough. A hug. A display of love that didn't sit well with everyone. Certainly not with Marcus Thuram.
The Serie A account posted a photo on Instagram showing Lautaro Martínez embracing Lionel Messi during the match between Argentina and Chile.
This display of affection garnered thousands of likes and positive comments, but one comment stood out for a different reason.
Marcus Thuram, the French star and teammate of Lautaro Martínez at Inter Milan, commented on the post in a way that made it clear he wasn't entirely comfortable seeing so much love between Messi and his teammate.
"You never hugged me this much 🥺😕😣," the French forward wrote. His comment, filled with humor and a hint of jealousy, has since received over 16,000 positive reactions.
Fans were captivated by Thuram's playful jealousy, and now there's anticipation about when Lautaro and Thuram will reunite at Inter's preseason training. Undoubtedly, there will be an embrace between the two when they meet again.
