Yassine Cheuko has become a worldwide name, the personal bodyguard of Lionel Messi since the Argentine came to MLS and Inter Miami is more known for his massive physical condition and stopping Messi fans from running on the field than his soccer skills.
Yet after Inter Miami’s training session, Cheuko was captured by sports media personality Fernando Fiore kicking the ball around with two other staff members.
Cheuko’s presence in MLS games has become a sort of tradition, while at times a bit intrusive, with his constant “stalking” of Lionel Messi, the bodyguard is stuck to Messi at the hip and never lets the World Cup winner out of his sights.
