Lionel Messi joins his son’s birthday celebration with the kids at the Inter Miami academy

It is not strange for sons or children generally to follow in their fathers’ footsteps, especially if it leads to evident greatness. Cristiano Ronaldo Jr is a footballer just like his father, and Lionel Messi’s son Thiago Messi Roccuzzo has also taken after his father’s footsteps.

Possessing the potential of being born with a prodigious right foot, Thiago emerges as a promising soccer talent, drawing global attention from the moment he entered the world. Hence, Messi who has had several causes for celebration before and after winning the Ballon d’Or is now also celebrating his son today on his birthday today!

Thiago, the eldest son of Lionel Messi, is seen wearing an Inter Miami kit similar to his father, while his mother, Antonela Roccuzzo, extends birthday wishes to him. Antonela conveyed birthday wishes to their eldest child, Thiago, via Instagram, celebrating the now 11-year-old who increasingly takes after his father. Thiago, donning his Inter Miami kit, became part of the Heron’s system in late August and has actively participated in numerous matches for their youth academy.

Many Inter Miami fans have missed Lionel Messi in action. However, he plays again soon. Scheduled for a comeback on November 10, the Argentine maestro is poised to grace the field as Inter Miami hosts an honorary friendly match against MLS side New York City FC. This special occasion is dedicated to commemorating the acquisition of the legendary Argentine’s eighth Ballon d’Or trophy.

On and off the pitch, Lionel Messi has been a great role model to his children. When he scored, he celebrated like superheroes, making them happy, and off the pitch he even gets Thiago, his son laced up in preparation for his own matches and training sessions.

Thiago is increasingly mirroring his father, both on and off the soccer field! Embarking on his own football journey, he caught his dad’s attention when Lionel Messi himself turned up to witness Thiago’s skills in action for the Herons’ academy team back in September.
