WHAT HAPPENED?
Messi’s influence on society extends far beyond the football field, with his vast marketing appeal allowing him to take on ventures that have nothing to do with sport. The Argentine icon is currently in the process of launching his own range of hydration drinks.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
While catering to those that are thirsty, Messi can also help to fend off any hunger pangs. It was revealed in March 2022 that the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner was teaming up with Hard Rock Cafe to deliver the ‘Messi Burger’ – which features two seared ground beef patties, provolone cheese, chorizo, red onions, Hard Rock’s in-house sauce, lettuce, tomato, and a brioche bun.
DID YOU KNOW?
Messi has now treated his family to a taste of that product, with a casual dining experience being taken in alongside partner Antonela and their three children. They headed out into the Florida sunshine for a bite to eat in the wake of Inter Miami’s latest victory in MLS.
WHAT NEXT FOR MESSI?
Messi is back home after helping the Herons to a 3-2 comeback win over Montreal, with that success keeping them at the top of the Eastern Conference. Tata Martino’s side will be back in action on Wednesday when taking in a derby date with local rivals Orlando City.
