Argentine icon now in the United StatesHas built a global brandArchitect designs dream family abode

WHAT HAPPENED?

Architect Jorge Luis Veliz has taken it upon himself to piece together plans for what would be the ultimate American base for Messi and his family following a stunning move to Inter Miami. The futuristic design is based around the ‘M’ logo that now forms part of Messi’s global brand.

Veliz has said of his dream project: “This majestic mansion consists of three levels and is located on an exclusive ship-shaped island, providing privacy and a privileged location.” The home dreamt up for Messi would also include a games room, home theatre, a pool and a football pitch for the Argentine and his three sons to practice on.

AND WHAT'S MORE

It has been suggested that such an abode would cost around $50 million (£40m) to construct. Money is no object to the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner – as one of the most commercially-profitable figures on the planet – but he is currently setting up camp at houses that do not require a mythical island to be created for him.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?

Messi has made a stunning impact in the United States since linking up with Inter Miami as a free agent. David Beckham and Co are seeing an immediate return on their investment in the Argentine, with a first piece of silverware collected in the Leagues Cup before securing a spot in the U.S. Open Cup final and a three-point haul on Messi’s debut in MLS.
