Lionel Messi is one of the greatest stars in world history. At the end of his career, Messi also left Europe at the same time. At this point, the legend was satisfied with his decision.
Messi: Huge mansion, high salary and no pressure
After moving to Inter Miami in July, Messi quickly shined with 10 goals in the first 7 matches, helping his team win the Leagues Cup. If he hadn’t suffered an injury in the final stage, the Argentine superstar would definitely have been able to contribute even more.
Regarding remuneration, Messi is said to receive about 54 million USD per year. This salary is not much higher than when the Argentine superstar was still playing at PSG. However, as Messi himself admitted, playing for Inter Miami helps him relieve the pressure and enjoy playing football.
Off the field, Messi also has a comfortable life. The Argentinian superstar is often seen with his relatives going shopping, having dinner or most recently going to Disneyland.
According to the New York Post, Messi spent 10.8 million USD to buy an apartment near Inter Miami’s headquarters. This mansion has 8 bedrooms, 9 bathrooms, and other amenities such as a spa and gym.
Previously, Messi also bought another apartment in Miami in 2019 for 9 million USD. However, Messi probably does not want to stay at this villa with his family because it is about 30km from Inter Miami Club.
In America, Messi spends more time on non-football activities. The Argentine superstar’s family also had the opportunity to get to know many famous people. In October, Messi attracted attention when he posted a photo of his whole family with male musician and singer Ed Sheeran.
Messi’s wife Antonela only took a few months to build a close relationship with Victoria Beckham, the most powerful WAG in football. On her recent personal page, Ms. Becks called Antonela “a great friend”.
