- Netflix works with Lionel Messi to produce animated series of his.
- The deal will be worth more than what Cristiano Ronaldo’s girlfriend got.
- Messi’s World cup room turned into a mini museum.
Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are both at the tail-end of their prolific careers; they are gradually turning their focus to the cinema industry, and eyebrows are rising as football enthusiasts ask who Netflix will pay more.
For many years Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have split the football or soccer world into two halves of who the G.O.A.T (Greatest Footballer of All Time) is. Aside from their athletic and football prowess, these guys have earned mouthwatering wages both on and off the pitch.
The careers of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have been somewhat intertwined for many years, spanning two decades. As they both face a gradual decline, it has become expedient to document their exceptional careers as movies or animations.
Lionel Messi supposedly “completed football” by winning the FIFA WORLD CUP in 2022. As a footballer, this was the only trophy left in his pretty large trophy cabinet. He has not been silent about what this trophy means to him and Argentina, and some haters consider him a bit overbearing.
Lionel Messi has no plans to take his foot off the pedal as he takes his celebrations a step further with a possible partnership with Netflix, which has well over 190 shows you should watch.
This partnership between Netflix and Lionel Messi will produce an animated series that tells his story from his humble beginnings in Argentina, followed by his rise to fame in Barcelona, and then capped off by his most recent treasure, winning the FIFA world cup.
Contrary to common knowledge, this animation is not Lionel Messi’s first audiovisual production but his third and hopefully not his last.
Back to the central question of the day, how much is Lionel Messi worth to Netflix? It is common knowledge that Netflix was willing to and went on to pay Cristiano Ronaldo’s girlfriend, Georgina Rodriguez, 10 million euros for sharing her life story.
Will Lionel Messi be paid more or less? If more, how much exactly should we anticipate? Here is everything we could gather for Lionel Messi’s possible earnings from his Netflix animation series.
Lionel Messi’s estimated earnings in his Netflix animated Series
Many analysts and football fans believe Lionel Messi’s worth in this deal scaled significantly after his soul-lifting performance in the recently concluded 2022 FIFA world cup and his ultimate win.
With Cristiano Ronaldo’s girlfriend, Georgina earning 10 million euros, the least Lionel Messi will get from his deal with Netflix is 15 million euros. However, a small sect believes that’s a paltry sum compared to the quality of content to be shared by Lionel Messi.
According to reports from the Infobae portal, the animated series will closely examine Messi’s childhood, growth hormone struggles, inspirations, and several incidents that shaped his life on and off the pitch. The highlight of this series will be the 2022 FIFA world cup journey with Argentina.
Rumour also has it that Lionel Messi has yet to decide whether he will embody the voice of a cartoon in His Netflix animated series.
There is so much love for Messi in the world today that it has almost turned into idolatry. According to many media outlets and State-run Qatari news agency QNA’s post on its Twitter account, Qatar University will turn the room Lionel Messi stayed in during the FIFA world cup into a mini-museum. This action shows how much football fans love and worship the Argentine playmaker.
What the world cup win meant to Messi cannot be overstated. Unlike the small Argentine, who loves to keep a low profile, he has been very vocal about this win. He occasionally responds to critics by posting pictures of the world cup trophy.
To sum up the life and passion of Messi, here is what he had to say on social media after the world cup win
“From Grandoli to the World Cup in Qatar, almost 30 years passed. It was almost three decades since the ball gave me many joys and some sadness. I always dreamed of being World Champion, and I never wanted to stop trying, even though I knew it might never happen.”
