Just after the news of Lionel Messi getting customized gold iPhone 14 for every member of Argentina 2022 World Cup winning team, gunmen have attacked a super market owned by the family of Messi’s wife, Antonela Roccuzzo and a message for him.

The attacked was carried out by two men in Messi’s hometown of Rosario. CCTV caught one of the men who invaded the business premises in a motorbike walking up to it and firing repeatedly. The masked man fired almost a dozen shot at the blinders of the supermarket.

The attackers have written a message in a yellow paper that read;

 “Messi, we are waiting for you. Javkin is a drug trafficker, he won’t protect you.”

Antonela’s family is said to own the supermarket called, Supermercado Unico which is reportedly run by one of her relatives.

The gun attack which happened by 2 a.m, is anticipated to continue today. A local Argentine TV station reported that the attackers are trying to extort Lionel Messi.
