Superstar footballer, Lionel Messi, has openly expressed his desire to have a baby girl with his wife Antonela Roccuzzo, despite the couple not actively trying for another child.
Messi, who tied the knot with Roccuzzo in 2017 after knowing each other since the age of five, already shares three sons with his childhood sweetheart: Thiago, 11, Mateo, 8, and Ciro, 6.
In September, the former Barcelona star hinted at the possibility of having a fourth child after admitting his wish to have a daughter.
During a recent interview with ESPN Argentina, Messi discussed the prospect of expanding their family.
He Said: ‘I would love to have a girl/daughter but right now, we’re not trying. There’s nothing concrete right now.’
In his ESPN interview, the 36-year-old explained why life was so difficult for him in Paris when he was playing for PSG.
‘In Paris, the neighbors were a pain in the a**,’ he recalled. ‘They rang the doorbell and told the boys not to make any noise playing football. Besides, it was ten o’clock…But I don’t have anything against them [in Paris] either. It didn’t turn out the way they wanted it and the way I wanted it.
‘I had a hard time because the change was very difficult for us, it affects my mood a lot and it reflected on the pitch. And in Paris, on a personal level, it was not good.’
