Barcelona youngster Lamine Yamal to Inherit Messi's iconic jersey number
Spanish international Lamine Yamal, who turns 18 on July 13th, will inherit Barcelona's legendary number 10 shirt, previously worn by Lionel Messi.
What Idris said
The Snowfall star, along with Brad Pitt, are currently on a press run promoting their recently released sports action movie, “F1.”
During one of their stops, Idris spoke about a movie in which he had an Argentinian accent, and when the host asked if he spoke Spanish, he replied, No, instead, expressing his love for Lionel Messi.
“I don't [speak Spanish]; I love Lionel Messi; the greatest player in the world,” he said. “My whole life, I wanted to be a football player, but I was just an extraordinary actor.”
What Brad Pitt said
The duo were also on the LadBible Agree to Disagree show, where an argument about the superior sport between football and the NFL led to Brad Pitt revealing that the 2022 World Cup helped him appreciate Messi's greatness.
“Lionel Messi, man,” Damson said. “Oh, he's amazing. I love him. He's amazing. He's like an alien.”
Brad Pitt chilled in, saying, “Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, but I would always, as I said as a tourist, I would jump in and it took a long time for him to perform in the great show. And then the last one showed up.”
