Lionel Messi’s recent visit to Los Pibes Barber Shop in Boca Raton, Florida, has become a viral sensation. The Argentine soccer legend debuted a fresh haircut, courtesy of barber Agustín Rodríguez, while draped in the national flag a moment Rodríguez described as a “dream come true.” This new look has grabbed fans’ attention. With Messi, even a haircut can go viral.
Beyond his new hairstyle, Messi’s life in Miami continues to flourish. He and his wife, Antonela Roccuzzo, have been actively involved in the community, with Antonela recently turning heads at an Inter Miami match. Their three sons Thiago, Mateo, and Ciro are also adapting well, often seen enjoying family outings and supporting their father’s games.
On the field, Messi’s impact on Inter Miami has been profound. Since joining the team, he has scored 42 goals and provided 21 assists in 48 appearances, leading the club to significant achievements, including a spot in the upcoming Club World Cup. His presence has not only elevated the team’s performance but also increased its global visibility.
Discussions are underway for Messi to extend his contract with Inter Miami beyond 2025, potentially keeping him with the club through the 2026 World Cup. Club owner Jorge Mas has expressed optimism about the extension, emphasizing that the decision ultimately rests with Messi and his family. The prospect of Messi participating in his sixth World Cup, especially with matches scheduled in Miami, adds to the excitement surrounding his potential continued presence in Major League Soccer.
Off the field, Messi is expanding his presence in Miami’s real estate market. He’s signed a contract to purchase four luxury condos at the under construction Cipriani Residences Miami, further cementing his ties to the city. The move reflects his growing connection to South Florida and hints at a long term commitment though much will depend on what happens with his upcoming contract renewal.
