The Argentine attacker was immediately dealt with when he went against club protocol. As a result, he will be sidelined for the Parisians’ two most important matches in their title race, against Troyes on Sunday and Ajaccio, but he may return on May 21 to face Auxerre.

The Argentine international consequently sent a video apology to histeammates on Instagram, in which he also reaffirmed his commitment to the club but ultimately left his future with the club to decide.“I sincerely believed that I would have the day off after the game as had been happening in previous weeks.I had this trip organised and I couldn’t cancel it, I had already cancelled it before. I apologise to my teammates and I’m waiting for what the club wants to do with me”, he said.

What are the protocols Lionel Messi’s wife Antonela Roccuzzo had to abide by in Saudi Arabia?

According to reports, Lionel Messi receives roughly $25 million a year in exchange for promoting Saudi Arabia as a tourist destination.The World Cup winner made his first trip to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia exactly one year ago, during which he saw Jeddah and swam in the Red Sea.

After returning for PSG’s friendly against a Riyadh XI captained by Ronaldo, he has now returned for a third time, this time with his family. Photos of the superstar and his family in Saudi Arabia, depicting them petting a gazelle and interacting with a falcon, shopping at a high-end mall, and eating at the upscale Al Bujairi Terrace, have been widely shared online.

His wife,Antonela Roccuzzo, however, had to abide by stringent conditions during her trip to Saudi Arabia.SportBiblehave reportedthat 35-year-old Roccuzzo was subject to a number of rules and restrictions. Modest apparel is required for all female attendees, including no low-cut tops or bare shoulders.

What is more, there is no longer a need for women to cover their hair and bodies in public when wearing the abaya. Thus, Roccuzzo decided to wear jumpsuits, while yet maintaining the appropriate level of formality for the occasion.

At least in terms of Shakira and Antonela’s relationship, though, everything seems to have shifted dramatically.Initially, Messi’s wife agreed with the Colombian’s New Year’s message about ‘betrayal’and responded favorably to the contentious “Music Sessions 353” featuring Bizarrap.

The 34-year-old Argentine has repeated her position on the split betweenthe singer and the ex-Barcelona defender, who used to be ateammate of herhusband from 2008 to 2021. She has done this by making a fresh exhibition of social media support on Instagram.

How hasAntonela Roccuzzo reacted to Shakira’s latest single release?

Shakira and Karol Gboth shared the identical post on their Instagram pages, reading, “We know you’ve been waiting for it and here we are”, and Antonela was quick to respond with multiple flame emojis.As an apparent message to their respective exes, Gerard Pique and Anuel AA, the duo will released a song titled “TQG” (‘Te quede grande’ [I was too much for you]) on February 24.

Fans, including Antonela, are eager to hear the music and, more significantly, to hear the words, which will spark many interesting conversations. This latest display of love for Shakira comes as Messi’s life partnerseems to hint that she is eager to hear the new song from the Colombian musicians.

The overwhelming amount of positive feedback may suggest that Antonela and Shakira’s friendship may have been stronger than previously believed, despite the fact that they were never considered close. It’s possible that the split has made no noticeable difference there. However, Messi’s wife is definitely on Team Shakira due to her support for the singer after her split with Pique.

Still, these women are also paving their own way as many of them have their own careers and business ventures. From international pop star Shakira to infamous wife/agent Wanda Nara the definition of a wag has changed over the years.
