Lionel Messi spent £12 million on a private plane for himself and his family.

The Barcelona forward has been leasing the aircraft, which has a few unusual modifications, to traverse the world in comfort and luxury.

The vessel’s fin is currently adorning the No 10, a number synonymous with Argentina.

Lionel Messi spent £12 million on a new private jet for himself and his family.

The steps leading to the main chamber have been adorned with portraits of Messi’s entire family, including his wife Antonela and their three young children, Thiago, Ciro, and Mateo.

The plane is said to have two bedrooms, a kitchen, and sixteen seats that can all be folded down to make eight seats.

Messi scored in Barcelona’s 1-1 Champions League draw with Tottenham on Tuesday night, commemorating his 15th season in the competition with the Catalan giants.

Every seat in the lavish interior has reclining chairs and displays.

His former adversary has pushed him out of his comfort zone, even as he tries to re-enter it with his most recent purchase.

When asked if he kissed the Argentine after his kiss with Juventus, Cristiano Ronaldo replied, “No, ma’am, it’s him who kisses me.”

I’ve performed for my national teaм and in England, Spain, Italy, and Portugal while he’s still in Spain.

The names of the Messi family are all engraved on the stairs leading to the plane.

Perhaps he needs more time. I appreciate challenges in life, and I enjoy making other people happy.

“He’s a great guy and a fantastic player, but I don’t see anything here.” I’m happy with my new life the way it is.

To embark on this work in Turin, I ventured outside of my comfort zone. Everything has gone swimmingly, and I’m still a fantastic player.

It remains to be seen whether Messi will use his new possession to follow Ronaldo to a new challenge.
