Joining The Argentine National Team, Lionel Messi's IDR 132 Million Outfit Has People's Attention

JAKARTA - Lionel Messi is currently in Argentina to prepare for the Qatar 2022 World Cup qualification. Arriving in his home country, Messi's presence has successfully stolen the attention.

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) players who are also known as soccer stars with exorbitant earnings, appear modest. However, even though he seemed ordinary, the total outfit that Messi wore upon his arrival in Argentina was fantastic.

If it is totaled from head to toe, all the items attached and carried amounted to 7 thousand pounds, or approximately IDR 132 million!

The most striking thing is the suitcase with green gradation from the world-famous brand, Louis Vuitton.

Quoted from the Mirror, the suitcase is priced at 3.250 pounds, or approximately IDR 61 million. Not only suitcases, but the backpack that Messi is wearing from the same designer also has a price of £2,417 (IDR 45 million).

Shifting from his luggage, the clothes worn by the former Barcelona also have a price tag that is no less fantastic. Messi is seen wearing a gray sweater from the DSquared2 brand for £371 (IDR 7 million).

It was paired with jeans for £492 (IDR 9 million) and a pair of white shoes for £542 (IDR 10 million).

Did Messi's appearance in the Qatar 2022 World Cup qualifier between Argentina versus Venezuela also steal the show?

Messi is currently under the spotlight because his performance has declined since joining from Barcelona to PSG. The magical touch of the 2021 Ballon d'Or winner seems to have disappeared.

Many are curious, whether Messi will be just as sluggish in the Argentine national team. Or the player actually appears crazy to prove that he hasn't finished.

The Argentine national team coach has called 44 names to enter his squad for the 2022 World Cup Qualifiers. Besides Messi, there are Emiliano Martinez, Emi Buendia and Cristian Romero.

There are also Manuel Lanzini from West Ham, Alexis Mac Allister from Brighton, Manchester United youth player Alejandro Garnacha and new Manchester City signing Julian Alvarez.

The Albiceleste will host Venezuela's first Buenos Aires on Friday, March 25. After that, his team will travel to Guayaquil for the match against Ecuador on March 29.
