Proud of the soccer player, the man, husband, and father, Lionel Messi, for all he has achieved throughout his career with the Argentine national team and the messages he has sent to everyone—but especially to their children—said Antonella RCucho. “Leo’s” wife expressed her love for him, everything he has meant to the “Albiceleste”—from which he has now retired—and everything he means to her and their family.
“What a joy it is to see you close this chapter this way. So many years, so many moments, so much joy, but also so many failures. I’ve seen you suffer, fall down, and get back up again. I’ve seen you persevere when things didn’t go the way you wanted and always try again. And after all these years, I was also lucky enough to see you make your dreams come true and experience some of the happiest days of our lives.

But there’s something about this whole story that moves me deeply: that our children grew up witnessing all of this firsthand. That they saw their dad fight for what he wanted, never give up, and keep believing until the very end. And that they were then able to be there to see you achieve everything and lift the World Cup.
Maybe one day they’ll truly understand the magnitude of your story. Today, they’re just proud of their dad. And I’m proud of you, too. For your journey, for everything you’ve overcome, and, above all, for the person you’ve always been behind each and every one of those moments. What a blessing it’s been to experience all of this by your side. “We love you endlessly,” she writes in her message.
