The year is coming to an end, and so is Lionel Messi’s break in soccer. The Inter Miami captain is on the verge of a return after an interrupted second half of 2023 with injuries. But before that, the Argentinian captain has a critical family commitment coming up, for which he landed in Argentina on Sunday morning.

The Argentina captain has a lot of reasons to end 2023 on a cheerful note. Significantly, the player became the only person to win eight Ballon d’Ors and had a decent club performance this season. But apart from the love for soccer, he once again proved how much his family matters to him. A true family man through and through!

Lionel Messi arrived in Argentina ahead of an urgent commitment!

Lionel Messi, as we all know, is very committed to his national and club teams. But the star also shows the same loyalty to his family. As the star began his Christmas sabbatical before the Inter Miami pre-season, he came to his hometown, Rosario, to attend his wife, Antonela Roccuzzo’s sister Carla Roccuzzo’s espousal, according to a report.

Carla also actively participated in Lionel Messi’s wedding, as she was the bridesmaid for the then-bride Antonela in 2017. Now, Messi wants to return the favor by attending her wedding ceremony. According to reports, Carla met her partner in the US, where she did her postgraduate degree. The 31-year-old usually likes to keep her life private. According to reports, her partner is also a doctor, more specifically a surgeon like her.
