  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  While being stuck on the sidelines, with an unfortunate injury now seemingly shaken off, Messi took the opportunity to rub shoulders with other members of the global celebrity A-list. He does not look out of place there, with superstar guests having flocked to see him in action since moving to the United States.

  Manchester United and England icon David Beckham helped to make that switch possible, with Messi now mingling with his wife Victoria and legendary fashion designer Ford as he seeks to make the most of what Miami has to offer on and off the pitch. Victoria Beckham has posted an image of Instagram of an “amazing night” spent in the company of two trailblazers from their respective professions.
