JAKARTA - Inter Miami boss David Beckham is properly guarding the club's assets, Lionel Messi. In fact, he specifically recruited former MMA soldiers and fighters to protect the player while in Miami.

The Argentine national team player is supervised by his new security officer named Yassine Chueko. In fact, his bodyguard ran along when Messi celebrated the goal.

Messi has arrived in the US with a welcome and Inter Miami has gone to great lengths to ensure his safety.

Fans have several times learned of Yassine Chueko's presence and he was seen running on the side of the pitch as Inter Miami won over Cincinnati, a few days ago.

At that time, Messi went to celebrate Leonardo Campana's goal with his teammates off the field. The personal bodyguard then ran from the break room to take a position not far from the star.

Chueko is a former Navy Seal with experience in Iraq and Afghanistan. He is also trained in martial arts and has had many MMA fights.

He was specially taken to the club by Beckham after a security breach last month. A fan entered the pitch and ran towards Messi.

Messi has indeed been hailed by Inter Miami fans. The former Barcelona player continues to have a positive impact on his team.

Inter Miami have had eight unbeaten matches since introducing Messsi with two of his former colleagues in the Blaugrana, Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets.

The 2022 World Cup winner has scored ten goals in eight games with the Major League Soccer (MLS) club.

Inter Miami have also won the League Cup by beating Nashville on penalties. The team will face Houston Dynamo in the final of the US Open Cup 2023 on 27 September.
