After closing another unforgettable year, Lionel Messi is enjoying a well-deserved rest with his family in Rosario, yet continues to amaze his followers. This time, the Argentina national team captain revealed a special part of his home: a personal museum showcasing the shirts from three of his most notable achievements with the Argentine national team, La Scaloneta.

In a recent Instagram post, Messi shared a picture of a wall decorated with the jerseys worn during the Copa América 2021 in Brazil, the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, and the 2024 Copa América in the United States. These shirts are carefully framed, alongside photos of the trophies won and an inscription detailing the match and its result.

A Tribute to Argentina’s Football Legacy

This space not only reflects Messi’s recent triumphs but also his deep emotional connection to the Argentine national team. It includes the emblem of the Argentine Football Association (AFA) with three stars representing the World Cups of 1978, 1986, and 2022.

The setup serves as a tribute to the golden era of Argentina’s national team, which began with the Copa América victory in 2021. That win, after a 28-year title drought, marked the start of a glorious era, which also saw victories in the Finalissima, two Copa Américas, and the 2022 World Cup.

A Personal Gesture for His Fans
