Lionel Messi Pulls Up To Barcelona Practice in Style

Lionel Messi pulls up to Barcelona practice in style. After a failed attempt to exit his boyhood club, Messi returned to training. The Argentine trained with Phillipe Coutinho. The duo need time to catch up to the rest of the squad

Lionel Messi arrived to training on Monday morning. The World’s Best Player arrived in his Mercedes Benz GLE. The vehicle is currently valued at just under R1 500 000.

To someone of Messi’s wage earnings, it’s quite a humble expense. According to Forbes, Messi made $104M in 2020. That equates to R1 765 909 600.

To anyone else, a R1 500 000 car is quite a superfluous buy. But for someone who made almost 2 billion rands, R1 500 000 is a modest expense. Although Messi arrived to training in a “modest” car, the rest of his car collection is quite impressive.

Lionel Messi’s fancy fleet reportedly includes a rare Ferrari 335 S Scaglietti Spider, Ferrari F430 Spider, Maserati Granturismo MC Stradale, Audi Q7, Audi R8, Audi R8 GT. Messi also owns a Mini Cooper S Cabriolet, Range Rover Velar, Lexus RX and a Pagani Zonda.

Teammate, Phillipe Coutinho also showed up to training in fine style. The former Bayern loanee arrived in a Mercedes Bence G63. The luxury vehicle is valued at R2 500 000.
