Antonella Roccuzzo is Lionel Messi’s biggest cheerleader and she proved it again after he was named FIFA’s Best Player of 2023. The Argentine model and Inter Miami forward’s wife came to Instagram to congratulate him on his new triumph.

Lionel Messi has had an illustrious career since he first stepped onto a football ground, and many consider him to be the greatest of all time. His accomplishments and accolades in 2023 only served to reinforce this idea, as he received numerous individual honors.

Messi managed to emerge with a record-extending eighth Ballon d’Or crown in 2023 after ƅеаting Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland to the award. He was then voted by his fellow professional footballers as FIFA’s Best меn’s Player of the Year.

Antonella Roccuzzo was present with her husband and children at the Ballon d’Or gala, but they were all absent from the FIFA gala held in London. The model, who has 39.2 million followers on Instagram, posted her congratulations via her Instagram story as she reposted an image celebrating the forward.

She tagged him to the post and added some emojis as a caption, applauding the superstar.

Lionel Messi ƅеаt Haaland and Mbappé to the award in what was a closely fought ƅɑttle between him and the Manchester City man. They finished with the same points total, but the 36-year-old won under having received more first-place votes from captains than Haaland.

The Argentine forward also made history in the event as he became the first and only player in history to be voted into the World XI for 17 successive years. His move to the MLS last year does not seem to have affected his success and standing in football.
