In Lionel Messi’s supercar collection, there is one that has caught the eye of Cristiano Ronaldo. Notably, one was auctioned for up to 710 billion VND.
Lionel Messi always receives great attention from fans and is a player who receives a “huge” salary from football clubs. In addition, sports company Adidas also has a lifetime deal worth 1 billion USD with Messi.
Messi recently joined Inter Miami and is paid $54 million per year. Explaining the reason for joining Inter Miami, Messi said: “The truth is that economics has never been a problem or an obstacle for me.
We never talked about a contract with Barcelona. There was an offer but nothing official and no signature from me. I don’t know if it’s possible or not.
If it was because of money, I could have gone to Saudi Arabia or somewhere else to play. I received a very big offer but my decision was to go in a different direction, not because of money.”
According to US media sources, Messi could debut in the match between Inter Miami and Charlotte FC on August 21. Messi’s contract with PSG will expire on June 30.
In addition, Inter Miami will not be allowed to register Messi until July 7, so the 2022 world champion’s debut is expected to be delayed quite a while.
As one of the most famous players in the world, it is no surprise that Lionel Messi owns a collection of luxury cars and expensive items.
Standing out among Messi’s billion-dollar fleet is the Ferrari 335 S Spider Scaglietti supercar. This is the car that the former Barcelona star bought at an auction for 28 million pounds.
“King of football” Messi also owns a Ferrari 355 S Spider Scaglietti. This is considered one of the rarest Ferrari models on the planet because only 4 cars are produced. The Ferrari 355 S Spider Scaglietti is equipped with a 4.0L 390 PS V12 engine.

Also known as the “prancing horse of 1957”, the Ferrari 335 S Spider Scaglietti is powered by a naturally aspirated 4.0-liter V12 engine and can reach a top speed of 300 mph.
Only 5 were produced in the world and the version that Lionel Messi owns is also an extremely rare version of the Pagani Zonda.

It’s no surprise that Messi owns an Audi.
