Lionel Messi may arguably be the best soccer player on the planet – but he has now got a contender for the worst tattoo in the world inked on to his leg or so his fans think.
The Barcelona star’s girlfriend Antonella Roccuzzo posted a picture on Instagram showing the design.
And in the photo posted by Roccuzzo a child – apparently Messi’s son Thiago – can be seen drawing on his leg in red pen.
The caption of the photo reads: ‘Finishing the tattoo for Papi.’
The 27-year-old’s tattoo is of a sword, surrounded by roses, with a football on one side and Messi’s famous ‘No 10’ inked on the other.
It’s a pretty simple design but they’re killing him for it overseas.
Some major media outlets are calling “terrible,” “awful” and “the worst” … and the Barcelona star isn’t getting treated any better on social media:
— “F**k your tattoo messi why you destroy your leg with this ugly s**t tattoo why please tell him to remove.”
— “That’s an ugly tatoo…”
— “All that talent can’t account for taste”
Hmm is it really that bad? Check out it and what do you think?
