Messi invited a fan who stood outside his house for 10 hours
11.04.2023 | 20:48 |A fan of Argentina and Paris Saint-Germain footballer Lionel Messi, Juan Polkan, stood in front of his idol's house for 10 hours before being allowed into his residence in Paris. It is reported by RIA Novosti with reference to the Argentine news site Infobae.
"I searched for Messi's address on the Internet, but there is literally no trace. I managed to get it from a hairdresser who once serviced him at home. He didn't tell me exactly either, only the area, and it took me about 45 minutes to find the right place," Polkan, who arrived from Italy, is quoted by Infobae.
According to the fan, he had been standing at the house since 9 am and almost despaired when Messi's security guard promised to call the police. But the football player's wife Antonella Rokuzzo took pity on him and invited him into the house.
"The first thing I saw was Messi standing in front of me in slippers and he says hello to us. It was an incredible moment. I told him that I love him, we took pictures, he hugged me and signed my hand," - added the fan, who on the same day turned the autograph into a tattoo.
