Messi and his family are in the Bahamas. The Argentine is spending some quality time with his loved ones before embarking on a new journey in the US. Meanwhile, one pic shared by Antonela Roccuzzo concerned his fans just 15 days ahead of his debut for the MLS club.?

Roccuzzo took to Instagram to share their vacation snaps. One of those pics was the duo playing a jet ski. It is an adventurous sport that injures around 600-700 people yearly, as per the report. But what garnered the attention of the fans was Roccuzzo without a life jacket, while Messi had one. It’s an unsafe practice, and fans would hope Messi doesn’t try it again ahead of his debut.
The Argentine gets a well-deserved break after leaving PSG and playing international friendlies. Messi also appeared in the farewell games for Maxi Rodriguez and Joan Roman Riquelme. After the vacation, he will head to Miami to get the contract signed and other formalities done. If the statement by Jorge Mas is to be believed, David Beckham’s club will reunite Messi with his former teammates.
