Lionel Messi made his acting debut in the Argentian soccer show Los Protectores in a five-minute scene where he stars as himself.
The show focuses on three soccer agents that are about to go bankrupt and decide to work together when a famous soccer play appears.
In the episode, Messi is still in the soccer club Paris Saint-Germain. Three agents, played by Gustavo Bermudez, Adrian Suar and Andres Parra, pay him a visit to discuss a new project that would support young soccer players that compete in European clubs.
Messi begins to get annoyed as he discovers that the agents aren’t interested in discussing the project and instead request photographs, videos and autographs from him.
One of the men, Renzo “Mago” Magoya, pitches a bizarre proposal where Messi would have to play one game in every club in Argentina. Messi disapproves of the idea, making everyone feel awkward. His scene ends with the four men clearing the air and toasting with a glass of champagne.
Many fans and fellow actors congratulated Messi and approved of his cameo.
This includes Messi’s co-star in the scene Suar. On June 19, Suar wrote on Instagram, “Throughout my career, I have given directions to many actors. I did good for some, and I ruined the career of others. But the only one who understood my directions perfectly is number one @leomessi.”
Messi’s scene is in the first episode of the second season, which aired last Saturday on Star + in Latin America.
Messi’s next step in his career will be with the Inter Miami team owned by David Beckham. Since Messi announced this, ticket prices have skyrocketed as fans are desperate to see his debut with the team. There are also rumors that Gerardo “Tata” Martino, who is the former Argentina and Barcelona team manager, will lead the team as the coach.
