Lionel Messi’s Bodyguard Yassine Chueko Tackles Overzealous Fan During Inter Miami Match

Lionel Messi’s bodyguard Yassine Chueko made headlines once again during Inter Miami’s match against Sporting Kansas City on Saturday. The former soldier and Navy Seal was forced to tackle an overzealous fan who ran onto the pitch in an attempt to snap a photo with the football superstar.

In the closing minutes of the match, a man wearing a No. 10 Inter Miami jersey managed to get close to Messi and take a photo before being swiftly taken down by Chueko and stadium security. This wasn’t the only incident, as another fan also ran onto the field to embrace Messi before being escorted away.

Chueko, who was recommended to Inter Miami by co-owner David Beckham, is responsible for protecting Messi from pitch invaders looking to meet the football legend. With Messi’s immense global popularity, Chueko and his 50-person team ensure the safety of Messi and his loved ones at all times.

Despite the interruptions caused by the pitch invaders, Messi still managed to deliver a masterful performance in front of a record-breaking crowd at Arrowhead Stadium. He scored a stunning goal in the 51st minute and provided a perfect assist earlier in the match.

Sporting KC coach Peter Vermes praised Messi’s performance, highlighting his exceptional skills on the field. With Messi’s talent and Chueko’s vigilant protection, Inter Miami was able to secure a 3-2 victory over Sporting KC in a thrilling match that showcased both the excitement of the game and the dedication of Messi’s bodyguard.
