As he steps into the world of acting, Lionel Messi has continued to enjoy his final days of vacation.
Messi made his acting debut in the Star+ streaming programme “Los Protectores,” which is shown in Argentina and features the 36-year-old striker playing himself.
A day after Messi turned 36, the second season of “Los Protectores” debuted on Sunday, June 25. Adrian Suar, Andres Parra, and Gustavo Bermudez are all well-known actors.
The five-minute-long scenario in which Messi makes an appearance also includes three other characters who are portrayed by the Argentine actors Adrián Suar, Gustavo Bermdez, and the Colombian Andres Parra. Messi is a Rosario player.

The three agents, played by Andres Parra, Adrian Suar, and Gustavo Bermudez, pay him a visit in the French capital.
The agents irritate Messi when they start asking for pictures, autographs, and films with the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner while ostensibly discussing a scheme to aid young athletes who play for multiple European clubs.
Renzo “Mago” Magoya, one of the group, then makes a crazy suggestion in which Messi would play one game for each team in Argentina. It makes for a difficult situation because Messi is not amused by the concept and is not scared to tell them. After a while, everyone raises a glass of champagne to celebrate and the situation is resolved.
