Beckham reveals night out with Messi

That is the headline shared in an article by the Mirror (UK) today, October 5. Inter Miami signed Lionel Messi this summer and Inter Miami co-owner David Beckham was asked about the former Barcelona and Paris Saint Germain superstar’s life in the US.

David Beckham has given some rare insight into his experience of Lionel Messi’s character, after Gary Neville asked Becks about his night out with the 2022 World Cup-winning Argentina captain.

David Beckham and Lionel Messi have been spotted hanging out together in South Florida since the 36-year-old Argentine superstar joined Inter Miami in a blockbuster deal this summer. Beckham’s help in getting Messi used to his new surroundings has paid off and the M10 has made an impressive start with 11 goals in his first 12 appearances for Inter Miami.

Now Manchester United legend David Beckham has commented on photos of himself and Lionel Messi in Florida. Shortly after Messi scored on his Inter Miami debut against Cruz Azul, Beckham and Messi enjoyed dinner together. The dinner was also attended by members of both Becks and Messi’s families.

In July, David Beckham’s wife Victoria Beckham shared photos of soccer legends at Gekko steakhouse in Miami. The outing included Beckham and former Barcelona trio Inter Miami players Lionel Messi, Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets, along with their families. Also at the party was Inter Miami co-owner Jorge Mas.

Now, as Beckham “sits down” with a panel of experts including Gary Neville, Jill Scott, Jamie Carragher and Roy Keane for the “Stick to Football” programme, Becks isn’t shy about gushing about Messi.

Neville asked Beckham: “What is Lionel Messi like? I’ve seen pictures of you hanging out with Messi. I’m thinking simple things like does Messi have a glass of wine, does he have a beer or something? Does Messi do normal things?”

To laughter from those present, Roy Keane then interjected with a reply: “Lionel Messi is a great lad isn’t he? What a great lad,” before Jamie Carragher joked: “He was the first one in and the last one out.”

Despite some light-hearted teasing from those present, Beckham was happy to offer his own insight into Messi’s character. David Beckham replied: “To be fair, Lionel Messi is very humble. He does normal things that we just think ‘that’s the way it is ‘ .”

Especially in Miami, Lionel Messi is not left alone, he is chased everywhere, he is followed everywhere. There are thousands of people every day at the training ground to watch Lionel get in the car and leave and drive out onto the street. But since arriving in Miami, Lionel Messi has driven himself to the supermarket , shopped and gone home. Everyone was shocked by that, but that is Lionel Messi.”

Former England captain David Beckham added: “Lionel Messi is humble, he works hard, he has a fantastic family, his wife is fantastic, his kids are fantastic. Messi is just a normal guy with unbelievable talent.”
