Lionel Messi: Net worth and investments
According to reports from Goal, Lionel Messi’s net worth is estimated to be around $400 million (R5.7 billion). Messi has also been part of prominent campaigns with Pepsi, Gillette and Turkish Airlines. He also has three hotels in Barcelona.
THE US CONNECTION?
Having purchased a first apartment in the nearby Porsche Design Tower just two years ago, it seems as though Messi is expanding his property portfolio in Florida. It appears that the footballing legend of Argentinian descent may be planning to spend more time in the US since he is building up a property portfolio in Miami.
Messi, who has played his entire professional career at Barcelona, has previously hinted that he would like to play in the United States one day.
However, the future is not yet certain for this footballing superstar whose contract with FC Barcelona is expiring this summer. But one thing is sure, Messi will enjoy spending time in his new Florida pad!
