Lionel Messi will return to the African continent, this time for a luxurious friendly that is making waves around the world.
The Argentina captain will lead the world champions in a spectacular clash against Angola on November 14 in the capital Luanda.
According to the Argentine Football Association (AFA), “La Albiceleste” will first train in Spain for several days before traveling to Africa for the only match of November. After the match, the team will return to Europe to continue training until November 18.
But the main focus isn't on the game itself - it's on the staggering sum that Angola will pay. According to reports from African Football Insider, the African country will spend a whopping $10 million to bring Messi and Argentina to Luanda.
This match is part of an ambitious project by the government and the Angolan Football Federation to promote tourism and put local football on the world map.
On social media, reactions are mixed: some citizens see it as a historic event and a unique opportunity to see Messi up close, while others criticize it as an excessive expense in a country facing economic challenges.
