@FootynewsYassine Cheuko opened up about his bond with Lionel Messi, and it goes way beyond security detail. He says Messi sees him as a friend, they talk, laugh, and actually get to know each other. Messi always invites him to lunch and looks out for him. Cheuko also shared a moment from the plane after Messi won the Ballon d'Or: Messi turned to him and said, 'Yassine, take the' before the quote cuts off. #LionelMessi

The image is a split screen. On the left, a bald man with a beard, wearing boxing gloves and an Adidas jacket with an AFA logo, drinks from a mate gourd in a gym setting. On the right, the same man smiles next to Lionel Messi, who is wearing a bow tie. A golden Ballon d'Or trophy sits between them. The trophy has text that reads "BALLON D'OR FEMME FOOTBALL 2023".
