Lionel Messi, one of the most prominent football players in the world, surprised everyone by making a remarkable move this year to join David Beckham’s co-owned Inter Miami CF of the Major League Soccer (MLS).
He’s impressing everyone with his skills on the field and has already made a significant contribution to his team’s victory in the Leagues Cup. But currently, the center of attention is the luxurious house of Lionel Messi and his wife, Antonela Roccuzzo.
Recently, designer Jorge Luis Veliz unveiled a futuristic concept home of a couple on social media. This remarkable mansion located on a ship-shaped island is estimated to be worth about Rs 413 crore. It is the new home of the 2022 World Cup-winning footballer and his partner, offering them seclusion and exclusivity. The three-story mansion is a work of art in contemporary design. Here are some exclusive images that showcase the stunning features of this never-before-seen architectural marvel.
According to reports, a 36-year-old footballer turned down an offer from Saudi team Al-Hilal that would have paid him $300 million annually. Instead, he signed a contract with an MLS franchise co-owned by Jorge Mas, which will pay him between $50 and $60 million per year. Even though the amount is less than what he was offered by Al-Hilal, he will still earn millions of dollars through endorsements, including his exclusive profit-sharing agreement with Adidas. Additionally, he will share in the earnings from MLS fans who subscribe to Apple’s Live Pass.
Messi’s new contract has been estimated to be worth around $600 million (approximately Rs 4,965 crore), which means he will soon have the means to purchase a completely customized mansion equipped with every imaginable luxury. This extraordinary home will include amenities such as a theater, game room, football field, spiral waterslide, yacht port, parking for 20 cars, a lavishly decorated party room, three helipads, and much more. In addition to these opulent features, the mansion will boast a breathtaking view of Miami’s picturesque shoreline. Below are some previously unseen images of Messi’s M-shaped Miami mansion.
According to a report by Architectural Digest, Messi bought an oceanfront condo in the Sunny Isles Beach area in 2019. The condo is located in the Porsche Design Tower and boasts three bedrooms with a total area of 3,555 square feet. Its innovative features include a private swimming pool on a terrace and a glass elevator for transporting cars. Two years later in 2021, Messi spent over $7.3 million (approximately Rs 60 crore) on a penthouse in Miami. The penthouse includes four bedrooms, a spa, fitness and yoga studios, and a playhouse for kids, all on the ninth floor of Regalia Tower. The views of the Miami skyline are breathtaking. However, just a few months after purchasing it, Messi reportedly listed the home for sale, as reported by The Sun.
The football champion who has won the World Cup has invested a substantial amount of money in real estate and currently owns multi-million dollar houses in Ibiza, Barcelona, and Rosario (Messi’s birthplace). You can check out all of his investments here.
