Lionel Messi Accident
As his car jumped a red line on a busy road, Lionel Messi was involved in a terrifying incident, but the legendary footballer was fortunate enough to escape it unharmed. The incident happened on Friday while Fort Lauderdale police were accompanying the new Inter Miami signee.
Inter Miami Brasil posted a video of a motorist speeding through an intersection, but other cars’ foresight prevented what may have been a fatal collision. The car then made a left turn while the cops chased after it.

The reports mentioned Messi was inside the car but did not specify whether he was at the wheel. Fans of Inter Miami and Major League Soccer (MLS) will have to wait another week to see Messi wear pink on the field for the first time, according to Reuters.
The Argentine will make his club debut on July 21 when Miami plays Liga MX team Cruz Azul in the first Leagues Cup game, according to Miami owner Jorge Mas. Without naming any individuals, Inter Miami announced “a major exposure event” for Sunday at their home venue, Fort Lauderdale, Florida, earlier this week.

Apart from the World Cup and the Ballon d’Or awards, Messi contributed significantly to his childhood club, Barcelona, winning 35 titles (4 Champions Leagues, 10 Spanish leagues, and 7 Copa del Reys). Messi spent 17 brilliant years with Barcelona.
