Inter Miami Hires Bodyguard to Protect Lionel Messi – Exclusive Insider Details

They do not want to take risks with their world star. Inter Miami has appointed a bodyguard to protect Lionel Messi (36) – and only Messi. And that goes very far. Even during a match, the man follows his ‘customer’ from the sidelines to thwart potential danger.

LOOK. Bodyguard follows Messi everywhere

The Messi mania is gigantic in Miami. And she has taken care of that herself. His bang start – nine goals in six games – only adds to the craziness that was already immense when he arrived last month. The fact that Inter Miami will play for a prize in the Leagues Cup on Saturday says everything about Messi’s impact.

Not surprisingly, then, that the club wants to protect its superstar at all costs. Although it goes very far, some fans note. It hired a bodyguard who follows the Argentinian everywhere. And you can take that literally.

That the final is a surprise? Only for the people who don’t see us training and don’t know what work we do every day.

When the Inter Miami bus arrives for a match, the man is waiting neatly. When Messi gets off the bus, he shoots behind him in seven haste. Anyone who, as a fan, even thinks about touching the player with a selfie is kindly but firmly changed their mind. The man follows Messi into the catacombs of the stadium and onto the pitch for the warm-up. And it goes even further. During the match, the bodyguard positions himself on the sidelines and does not lose the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner for a second. Not superfluous, as it turned out. When a pitch invader charged at Messi, the man was quick to intercept him. Even before the stewards came running. When the spectator was led away, the bodyguard seemed to want to say something. “It’s okay, like that,” Messi gestured to his guard.

And also when celebrating a goal, greeting the supporters after the match or when Messi was reunited with his wife Antonela and kids, the man is always in one and the same image. Safety first.

The identity of the man is unknown, but fans are full of praise on social media. This man takes his job very seriously. Thanks for keeping our ‘GOAT’ (‘Greatest of All Time’, ed.) safe. The best footballer in the world deserves such treatment”, is one of the many reactions.

Messi: “First trophy would be incredible”

In the run-up to the final in the Leagues Cup against Nashville SC, Messi also gave his first press conference. Inter Miami can get their first ever trophy tomorrow. “It would be incredible, wouldn’t it? Both for me and the fans and for everyone who has helped this club grow,” said Messi. “That the final is a surprise? Only for the people who don’t see us training and don’t realize what work we do every day.”

Messi does not regret his switch for a second. “I received a phenomenal welcome here. When I started playing at PSG, it was not planned and not wanted. I didn’t want to leave Barcelona. That was hard. Fortunately, the opposite is happening now. I came here to play and enjoy football.”
