Lionel Messi is not only the best on the field, he is also ahead in many aspects off the field. The Argentine star who won the World Cup is ahead financially. But the surprising thing is that Inter Miami has a richer footballer than Messi. Inter Miami’s richest player is Leonardo Campana.
Campana is not even close to Messi when it comes to the calculation of the football field. Where Messi has won the World Cup, Campana is still struggling to establish himself. But in terms of assets, Messi is not even close to Campana. It is surprising but true.
Italian media outlet ‘Corriere dello Sport’ has published a report on the matter. There they showed that Messi’s current wealth is about 500 million euros. And Campana’s family wealth is more than 1 billion euros. The Ecuadorian footballer’s family has various businesses including agriculture, industry, tourism.
The media also revealed that Campana’s father, Pablo Campana, was a professional tennis player as well as a crop trader. He also served as Minister of Foreign Trade and Investment in the Lenin Morena government. Many of his family members were also involved in the housing sector business.
Currently playing for Miami, this footballer started his football career for Barcelona Sporting Club of Ecuador. Then he joined English club Wolves in 2020. Then, after playing on loan at various clubs including Inter Miami, he stayed permanently in Miami last year.
