Lionel Messi may live in Miami during the Major League Soccer (MLS) season, but he would have liked to be able to spend his holidays in Ibiza during the next break in the North American championship. This is where the Argentinian genius bought a villa in 2022 for the modest sum of 12 million euros. Although he has still not obtained a certificate of habitability to occupy the premises, the former Paris Saint-Germain striker would probably have preferred not to discover on video what environmental activists have done to the facade of the luxurious building.
According to TV5 Monde, members of the “Futuro Vegetal” collective threw black and red paint on the walls of the city owned by Lionel Messi, as a protest and to highlight the responsibility of the privileged for the climate crisis that the world is facing. In a video, therefore, we can see two FV activists vandalizing the facade of one of the 2022 world champion’s properties, on the Cala Tarida side, west of Ibiza. With them, a banner bearing the phrase: ‘Help the planet, eat the rich, abolish the police’.
