David Beckham's wife Victoria recently shared a couple of pictures and videos on Instagram highlighting how her husband is preparing for Lionel Messi's arrival at Inter Miami.
Messi joined Inter Miami as a free agent after parting ways with Paris Saint-Germain on the expiration of his contract this summer. He will now move to the MLS and ply his trade for the side co-owned by Real Madrid legend David Beckham.
Ahead of Messi's arrival in Miami, a mural has been made on the side of a building to welcome the Argentine. Beckham was recently seen applying finishing touches to the mural.
His wife Victoria also uploaded a story on Instagram regarding the same. In the video, she clicked her husband working on the mural and captioned it:
"Only arrived a few days, and he got straight to it! Is there nothing he can't do?!?!"
In her second story, Victoria clicked Beckham standing in front of the mural seemingly proud of his work and captioned it:
"@davidbeckham feeling quite accomplished as he should!!"
She also posted a reel of the same:
Lionel Messi is a huge signing for the club that was established in 2018. Inter Miami are yet to win a trophy and will hope that the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner's arrival can change it.
Messi had a brilliant 2022-23 season with PSG and Argentina. He registered 21 goals and 20 assists in 41 games across competitions for the Parisians, helping them win the Ligue 1 title.
He also captained Argentina to the 2022 FIFA World Cup triumph in Qatar, winning the Golden Ball with seven goals and three assists.
When David Beckham said that he decided to retire due to Lionel Messi
David Beckham is one of the greatest names in football. He played for the likes of Real Madrid and Manchester United, winning numerous trophies and accolades. The Englishman hung up his boots in 2013 after playing for Paris Saint-Germain.
In an old interview, he said that facing the likes of Lionel Messi made him realise that it was time to retire.
"I probably decided to retire when Messi was running past me," the 48-year-old said (via The Sun).
PSG and Barcelona faced off in the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals in the 2012-13 season. The tie ended 3-3 over two legs, with the Spanish team qualifying on away goals. Barcelona were then eliminated in the semifinals by eventual winners Bayern Munich.
