The Most Human Side of Lionel Messi
Lionel Andrés Messi showed his personal side in an interview with his nephew, Tomas Messi, on the podcast “Dispuestos a Todo” for Abitare. He talked about his relationship with the Argentina squad, what he spent his first paycheck on, and more.
Messi revealed his fashion preferences by sharing who he thinks is the most stylish player on the Argentina team: “Everyone has their style... I think I'll say Otamendi because he’s got a lot of swag when it comes to dressing,” he said.
Fans have always supported Messi, and some have shown their dedication in unique ways. Messi mentioned, “Seeing millions of tattoos of me or fans traveling from far away just to see or meet me, the way people are with me is always amazing, and I’m always grateful.”
To wrap up, the eight-time Ballon d'Or winner confessed what he spent his first paycheck on: “On my family, we tried to fix up the house and get more comfortable.”
