Recently, a video recording the image of superstar Lionel Messi and his personal bodyguard Yassine Chueko was posted on social media, immediately attracting attention. Accordingly, while at a football field in Miami (USA), Messi met a group of fans and happily approached.
Initially, Yassine’s bodyguard was not in the frame, but after just a split second, he suddenly appeared behind the Argentine superstar. Witnessing this, viewers were surprised. Some humorously said that he had the ability to “teleport” to follow Messi everywhere, anytime.
“He seemed to come out of the ground to be behind Messi ,” one account shared. Besides, some other fans also praised Yassine.
Yassine is the bodyguard hired by Inter Miami for Messi, reportedly earning around $3 million (73 billion VND). Yassine has proven himself worthy of this enviable salary. Whenever Messi goes out, Yassine follows him around like a shadow and has repeatedly “saved” the Argentine superstar from overzealous athletes.
According to some sources, Yassine is a former soldier who once competed in mixed martial arts (MMA). However, Yassine only protected Messi when the 36-year-old superstar was in the US. He did not follow Messi when he returned to the Argentine national team to compete in international matches.

On November 22, Messi played his last match of 2023 when he and Argentina defeated Brazil 1-0 on their home turf. Messi will return to the US and start a vacation with his family. However, according to Messi, the family’s travel plans were shortened because the children were busy going to school.
