Lionel Messi has ordered gold iPhones for Argentina’s World Cup- winning team and staff, with the custom-made devices reportedly worth £175,000.
The Albiceleste came up victorious at Qatar 2022, with Messi putting in another collection of talismanic displays as captain.
The seven-time Ballon d’Or winner, who has just landed the FIFA Best men’s player of the year award, has eventually got his hands on the one squad prize that he coveted most.
To honor that achievement, Paris Saint-Germain superstar Messi has teamed up with IDESIGN GOLD to treat all of his team-mates and Argentina’s coaching staff to 24-carat Apple devices with a serious shopping pull successfully delivered to the French capital.

Ben Lyons, CEO of iDesign Gold, has told The Sun “Lionel isn’t only the Goat but he’s one of IDESIGN GOLD’s most dedicated clients and got in touch with us a couple of months after the World Cup final.
He said he wanted a special gift for all the players and staff to celebrate the amazing victory but didn’t want the usual gift of watches. So, I suggested gold iPhones inscribed with their names, and he loved the idea.
Messi was awarded the Golden Ball at the 2022 World Cup, which honours the player of the competition, and he continues to inspire those around him and a legion of loyal followers across the globe that extends to several million with his exploits at 35 years of age.
