Lionel Messi shared behind-the-scenes photos with wife Antonela Roccuzzo and his three sons before he collected the Ballon d’Or award.
Just prior to earning his seventh Ballon d’Or in history on Monday in Paris, the World Cup-winning Argentine captain released a few behind-the-scenes photos on social media.
The famous person’s three sons—Thiago, Matteo, and Ciro—as well as his wife Antonela were all caught in these heartwarming family photos.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: The 36-year-old received the eighth Golden Ball of his career on Monday after guiding Argentina to their third World Cup title in Qatar last year. He also played an important role in Paris Saint-Germain winning the Ligue 1 title in the 2022/23 season.
WHAT NEXT? With the MLS season coming to an early end for Inter Miami after they failed to make it to the playoffs, the Herons along with Messi were supposed to tour China during the offseason. However, on Wednesday the club confirmed that the tour was cancelled due to “unforeseen circumstances in China”.
