The 8-time Ballon d'Or winner already has a 'to-do list' this Christmas after yet another impressive year.

Lionel Messi and his stunning wife Antonela Roccuzzo have returned to his hometown of Rosario to celebrate the Christmas festivities with his family and loved ones.

In a heartwarming display of family priorities, Messi had to slightly delay his trip back to Rosario. 

The delay was attributed to the end of the school year for his children in the United States, showcasing the player's commitment to ensuring memorable family moments.

 The Inter Miami captain landed around 11:06 am local time, stepping off his large private plane that had transported him from Florida.

The discussions between Messi and Scaloni are expected to delve into the future plans for the national team, reflecting the captain's integral role not only on the field but also in shaping the team's direction.
