 The Indian football fans are eagerly waiting for Lionel Messi’s visit. There had been several conflicting reports about the player’s potential visit to Kerala. Messi’s suggestion that ‘may be one more city’ still gives hope to the fans in the state to meet the legendary footballer. The state government had pushed the plan earlier, which saw confusions later.
With local body elections in December 2025 and the Kerala Assembly polls in April–May 2026, the push to bring Messi may have been seen as a crowd-pleasing move in a football-mad state.
