Different kind of club! Lionel Messi & wife Antonela Roccuzzo shown around luxurious Miami home that includes a putting green | Goal.com UK
Lionel Messi and his wife Antonela Roccuzzo are reportedly looking into purchasing a Miami home that includes a private putting green.
- Argentine icon now with Inter Miami
- Chasing the American dream
- Already owns one property in Florida
WHAT HAPPENED? The property in question is based in the prestigious Boca Raton region that sits an hour to the north of Miami, but only 25 minutes from DRV PNK Stadium in Fort Lauderdale. That is where Messi is now plying his trade after linking up with MLS side Inter Miami as a free agent.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: The stunning house that the Daily Mail claims Messi and Roccuzzo are looking at – having been given a guided tour alongside sons Thiago, Mateo and Ciro – boasts a putting green for when the Argentine icon shifts his focus away from football and towards a different kind of club.
AND WHAT’S MORE: Seven-time Ballon d’Or winner Messi is set to earn between $50-60m (£47m) per season at Inter Miami after committing to an initial two-and-a-half-year contract with the David Beckham co-owned outfit. He has already made an immediate impact with new employers – registering three goals through two appearances as positive progress is made in the inaugural Leagues Cup.

WHAT NEXT? Messi already owns one property in south Florida, with a $9m (£7m) apartment which overlooks Sunny Isle Beach and the city of Miami acquired back in 2019. That abode, which is located in the prestigious Porsche Design Tower, features a private restaurant, outdoor lounge that faces the sea, a cinema, as well as golf and racing simulators.

Miami Police lieutenant arrested on domestic violence charge
A Miami Police lieutenant has been arrested on a domestic violence charge after he allegedly spit at and slapped his wife.
Lt. Thomas L. Carroll, 47, was arrested Saturday on a battery – domestic violence charge, an arrest report said.
According to the report, Carroll and his wife were involved in an argument when Carroll allegedly spit at her around 10 times.
He also allegedly slapped her twice in the face, the report said.
The wife ran out of the house and called police. The report said she didn’t have visible injuries but added that two witnesses corroborated her allegations.
Thomas was booked into jail and later released. Attorney information wasn’t available.
In a statement, Assistant Chief of Police Armando Aguilar said Carroll was relieved of duty pending further investigation.
“The Miami Police Department is committed to serving victims of domestic violence and holding the perpetrators of such crimes accountable for their actions. When acts of domestic violence are perpetrated by law enforcement officers, they are especially disheartening, as they represent a breach of the sacred trust placed in us by the people we serve,” Aguilar said in a statement. “We wish to thank the victim and witnesses in this case for coming forward. We are committed to ensuring that a thorough investigation is conducted and that the victim receives all necessary support throughout this process.”
Aguilar said Carroll was at one point an assistant chief of police but has been a lieutenant in the field operations division since 2023.
