Lionel Messi launches clothing line [Photos]
Barcelona star Lionel Messi has unveiled his brand new clothing line, creatively named ‘Messi’.
The clothing brand featuring a range of hoodies and T-shirts which feature either the word ‘Messi’ or his iconic number 10.
According to Sport, the four-time Ballon d’Or winner attended the launch event for the new range in Barcelona on Thursday, taking a back seat to shake hands and greet his fans as his sister Maria Sol took the lead.
“It is a dream come true,” Maria said.
“Fashion is what I like the most, ever since I was a child, and it was always a dream of mine to be involved with a clothing brand.
“I studied a lot to dedicate myself to this profession. When an opportunity such as this one presents itself, you have to take advantage of it.“

While Maria takes charge of the new brand, however, Messi’s focus is likely to remain on football for the time being.
