Lionel Messi has acquired a football club in Spain.
Details: According to insider Fabrizio Romano, Lionel Messi has become the full owner of the Spanish club Cornellà, which competes in the third division.
The Argentine star has purchased 100% of the shares of the Catalan club—a symbolic move, given the club’s proximity to Barcelona, the city where Leo spent his golden years.
This move mirrors Cristiano Ronaldo’s recent acquisition of Almería. The legendary rivalry between Messi and Ronaldo now shifts from the pitch to the boardroom, raising the stakes at the ownership and management level.
Reminder: Cristiano Ronaldo vomited after a Saudi Pro League match, as revealed by his coach.
