Shocking: Messi’s villa was vandalized, had paint thrown on it, and was asked for compensation of more than 1 billion VND, but was criticized as being too expensive.
In early August 2024, a group of environmental extremists released a video of the vandalism of Lionel Messi’s villa in Cala Tarida, Spain. In it, they sprayed red and black paint on the facade and walls. The extremists also posed with banners next to the swimming pool and soccer field.

Regarding the above incident, according to Marca, superstar Messi was not satisfied and officially spoke up to demand that this extremist group pay 50,000 euros (about more than 1 billion). The incident also caused a stir in public opinion in Argentina. The country’s President, Mr. Javier Milei, spoke out in support of Messi and strongly opposed the group’s destructive actions. He also asked the Spanish authorities to take responsibility for ensuring the safety of Argentine citizens living in Spain.
The extremists, on the other hand, claim that they only us
ed paint that can be washed off the walls with water. The demand for 50,000 euros in compensation is too high and unreasonable. In the worst case, repainting the facade of this house would not cost 50,000 euros. Therefore, they will not pay such a disproportionate amount of compensation.
