The Pope praises Messi's humility in interview
The Pope highlighted on Friday that Argentine soccer star Lionel Messi never let success go to his head and thanked him for the Paris Saint German (PSG) jersey he recently sent. In an interview with the Argentine news agency Télam, the pontiff said Messi had sent him an autographed PSG jersey through the French Prime Minister, Jean Castex. "Thank you for your closeness, thank you for your testimony and for not letting success go to your head," said Francisco in the interview, addressing the Argentine footballer. Francisco praised the simplicity of the Argentine national team player, sent him a blessing, and expressed that he could count on him. "May God bless you, and anything you need, count on me," said the Pope. EFE
