Inside Lionel Messi’s £12 million private jet with family names on the steps, a kitchen, two bathrooms, and the number 10 on the tail.
The £12 million luxury plane is the best way for the Argentine to travel with the World Cup trophy, say from Qatar to his home country.
It was made by a company in Argentina, and it was made with Messi and his family in mind.
It has a number of amazing features, such as its own kitchen.
There are two bathrooms and enough chairs for 16 people.
The chairs are amazing because they can be folded up and turned into eight beds.
Because of a technical problem, it had to make an emergency landing in Brussels two years ago.
On top of that, the steps have the names of Messi, his wife Antonella, and his three sons Thiago, Ciro, and Mateo.
But the famous person doesn’t own the plane, which has his No. 10 on the tail. Instead, he rents it.
But Messi’s jet-setting lifestyle means that this won’t bother him in the least.
This season, the star player has found his form again at PSG. In just 13 games, he has scored seven goals and set up ten more.
Messi is in Qatar with Argentina, where they are trying to win Messi’s first World Cup.
One of the teams most likely to win the tournament is South America.
Messi will be determined to win the World Cup in what could be his last tournament.
At least we know that he has the right vehicle to get the trophy home…
In the middle of the coronavirus crisis and out of concern for their safety, Lionel Messi has offered his European-based teammates who play for Argentina the use of his private jet so they can get to Argentina for the upcoming games.
The Barcelona captain and Marcos Acuna, Lucas Ocampos, Paulo Dybala, Nicolas Otamendi, and Juan Foyth were all on the same plane.
Lionel Scaloni has called all of them up for Argentina’s qualifiers for the 2022 World Cup against Ecuador and Bolivia.
Messi bought the Gulfstream V private jet at the end of 2018 for a little bit more than $15 million.
It is 29 meters long, 28 meters wide, and 8 meters tall. It was made in the US in 2002.
Messi takes his family on vacations there most of the time, and his father, Jorge, also takes business trips there.
It has two bathrooms, one of which has a shower, and two kitchens. It also has 16 executive seats that can be turned into eight beds.
On the tail of the plane, he has written the number 10, and on the stairs, he has written the names of his wife, Antonela, and his three sons, Thiago, Mateo, and Ciro.
Messi and his teammates will arrive in Buenos Aires on Monday and go straight to Argentina’s training center.
The Albiceleste’s first game will be on October 8 at La Bombonera against Ecuador. Five days later, on October 13, they will play Bolivia in La Paz.
