Better move for him than Saudi Arabia for his family. Less money but better lifestyle. Cant argue with that.

Not much less….all sorts of ‘sponsorship’ deals in the background

I for one am very impressed, he chose football and lifestyle over money. Of course he does not have to worry about money, but neither do the others!

I presume to add clarity. Why do you want the thread deleted?

Agreed
If you were offered the choice of living in a depressing repressive desert dustbowl where your doris has to mince around wearing a tent all day, or going to MIAMI where its slut central ?

Bloody hell.

I'd rather be wanked off by Edward Scissorhands than go and live in one of those medieval arab states.

I can only imagine his futre plan after football would be buying into the MLS and going the same route as Beckham

I saw an interesting stat/tweet about that. Becks (and whoever else was involved) bought Inter Miami for $25m apparently (clearly has spent a lot more than that) and it's now worth $600m. With Messi onboard, the fella who wrote the tweet (who knows his stuff about these things) reckons it's now easily upwards of a billion.

Decent work by the Spice Boy

Article in the New Yorker has a good take on Messi "delivering soccer to the USA" and the gulf between MLS and the top European Leagues
