It hasn’t even been a year since Lionel Messi moved to the United States. The former PSG star, following his transfer to Inter Miami, has revolutionized soccer in the nation. Messi has also positioned himself as the face of the revolution with his performances on and off the pitch. As his popularity within the country continues to soar with each passing day, the Argentine has bagged a blockbuster deal with retail giant Lowe’s. It could be a significant move from the Argentine with NFL superstar Travis Kelce, also a part of the brand’s star-studded endorsers.
Discussing the partnership on his Instagram handle, Lionel Messi stated, “I know the importance of a good assist, and that’s why I’m happy to join Lowe’s. The most helpful home improvement company. And together, we’re going to break another assists record. Today we’re making history by assisting every Lowe’s loyalty member with 100 points for their next project*. Visit lowes.com to learn more.”
