Lionel Messi club empire expansion

Lionel Messi is building a serious football portfolio across four countries while still active on the pitch. In the United States, he plays for Inter Miami and holds an option to become a co-owner of the club once he retires. His footprint in Argentina includes ownership of Leones de Rosario, a Fourth Division side that is managed by his family. Over in Uruguay, he shares co-ownership of Deportivo LSM with Luis Suárez. That project has seen immediate success, as the team won the Divisional D title in 2025 and has since moved up to compete in the Third Division. The expansion also reaches Spain, where Messi recently acquired UE Cornellà from the Fifth Division. This latest addition is set to focus on new youth development projects and initiatives for women's football. From Miami to Rosario and beyond, the network of clubs continues to grow. #LionelMessi
