Since moving to Florida to play for Inter Miami, Lionel Messi is reportedly living the good life with a mansion worth millions and frequent outings to expensive restaurants.

According to The Sun, the Argentina ace has been seen all around Miami's hot spots since his big move and is living the life of a Hollywood A-lister. His most recent escapade was him going out with Inter Miami owner David Beckham and teammate Sergio Busquets at the trendy Gekko restaurant.

Gekko is a Japanese-inspired steakhouse and lounge known for serving sushi, steaks, and cocktails worth thousands of dollars. It is noted to be one of David Beckham's favorite spots in Florida, and this was where he took his latest acquisition recently, along with Busquets, of course. The trio were reportedly joined by Messi's wife, Antonella, and Beckham's wife, former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham.

Messi has also been seen in other places around Miami Beach, enjoying some Italian food at Cafe Prima Pasta, which has much more reasonable prices than Gekko, with the restaurant's owner proudly taking a photo with the Argentinian soccer superstar.

Miami is known for its beaches, and Messi and his family have been seen enjoying themselves in South Beach, with Lio and Antonella being seen walking hand-in-hand and calling the place a "paradise."

How Much Is Lionel Messi's Miami Mansion Worth?

His decision to move to Miami instead of playing in Saudi Arabia might not be as lucrative, but the 2.5-year deal is said to be "worth up to $150 million total" and would still bag the Argentinian a ton of cash.

The deal includes his salary, signing bonus, team equity, and reported revenue-sharing agreements with Apple and Adidas, according to Forbes, which ranked Messi as the second highest-paid athlete in the world.

What did Messi do with his money? Well, when moving to Miami, he needed a house, and he really did splurge on one as he bought a mansion worth $10.75 million. The million-dollar home can be found at the exclusive Bay Colony community in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

Messi also invested in several properties around Miami, buying the entire ninth floor at Regalia, an ultra-luxury condominium development in the city of Sunny Isles Beach, Florida for around $7.3 million.

Lionel Messi Still Has Time for His Family, Recently Watched Son Play at the Inter Miami Academy

Messi may be busy with soccer practices, games, and travel these days as he plays not just for Inter Miami but also for Argentina. However, he was recently seen on "Dad Mode" as he was watching his son, Thiago, play the "Beautiful Game" at the Inter Miami Academy.

Thiago joined Inter Miami U-12 side right after his superstar dad joined the club last summer, and the man known to be soccer's "GOAT" was seen doing some coaching himself. His two other sons, Mateo and Ciro, were seen watching from the sidelines to see their older brother play.
