LIONEL Messi’s left leg has been
responsible for some of the most attractive goals in football history,
but there’s only one way to describe the new tattoo the Barcelona star
has inked on his shin.
It’s ugly.
The first glimpse of the new paint job came on Boxing Day when the photograph below began circulating on Twitter.
For one of the world’s most famous footballers to get a football tattooed on his leg didn’t seem like the most creative idea and the criticism only got worse when more of the artwork was revealed in an Instagram post \
by Messi’s girlfriend Antonella Roccuzzo.
“We can live with his outrageous fashion choices: the odd suits and weird tuxedos lend him a certain eccentric charm,” The Mirror’s Richard Innes wrote.
“But it’s something else when the most talented, valuable body part in the sport has this woeful tattoo inked onto it.”
It’s not the first time Messi has raised eyebrows with his choice of ink.
He also has Thiago’s hands tattooed on the back of his left calf — nice sentiment but perhaps not the most attractive idea either.
Thank goodness for shin guards!
