Inter Miami is seemingly going to unveil Lionel Messi this weekend. The Argentine World Cup winner has already landed in the US. Some time ago, a report suggested that his wife Antonela Roccuzzo had taken a major call. Their three kids will be joining the same school as Milan and Sasha,  Gerard Pique and Shakira’s kids.

This was a bit surprising, considering Pique and Messi’s sour relationship. We all know about the Argentine’s sudden exit from FC Barcelona a few seasons ago. Months after his departure, a report revealed that the retired defender played a role in Messi’s failed contract renewal.

This weekend, fans are gearing up for Lionel Messi’s presentation, where he will don the Inter Miami jersey for the first time. It was a sudden and unexpected call by the Argentine to join the MLS. He has reportedly signed a $55 million per season contract for three seasons at the club. Now that this is sorted, a report recently suggested that Roccuzzo has also decided on a school for their kids.

A report claimed that Messi’s three sons will study at Miami Country Day School. This school is definitely only for the wealthy bunch of families. It is an international and elite educational center. The fees of this school are shockingly $40k per student. Interestingly, Shakira and Pique’s two sons also study at the same school. In April, the Colombian icon relocated to Miami with her children.

In the summer of 2021, Lionel Messi shockingly exited FC Barcelona. A sight that many believed they would never ever witness. The club had reportedly not finalized a contract renewal despite an agreement between the two parties. But the Argentine soccer legend was shocked after he learned about a message that Pique sent Joan Laporta, the President of FC Barcelona.

The retired defender had reportedly texted Laporta with a suggestion of not renewing Messi’s contract. That would undoubtedly help the club’s FFP headache. The Argentine World Cup winner then felt extremely betrayed by his club and Pique too. In 2022, Messi returned to Barcelona for a short while. During his visit, he dined with many other former teammates but Pique wasn’t present.
