Following his departure from Paris Saint-Germain, Messi signed on the dotted line with Inter Miami, teaming up with David Beckham, who runs the franchise. The seven-time Ballon D’or winner marked his move in style, scoring a trademark free-kick to secure a last-minute victory over Cruz Azul in Leagues Cup.

His first start came just a few days later as he scoring a first-half brace on the way to an impressive 4-0 victory over Atlanta United. Messi and franchise co-owner Beckham were then seen out on the town celebrating.

At the opulent Gekko restaurant in Miami, they enjoyed their meal. Additionally, they were joined by the newly signed Sergio Busquets, his wife Elena Galera, and Jorge Mas, who is now a co-owner of the team.

The Steakhouse, which is influenced by Japanese cuisine, is a favorite destination for celebrities in the neighborhood. Messi and Beckham, along with their wives Antonela and Victoria, have been seen dining there. East Asian cuisine is Gekko’s specialty, and the restaurant is most well-known for the extensive selection of steaks it offers.

The most notable item on the menu is a 42-ounce piece that is referred to as “A5 Bone in Ribeye, Kagoshima, Mizusako.” The price tag for this item is an astounding $1200 (£940). It is possible that the top-of-the-line item will cost you more than one thousand pounds if you include some sides.

In addition to a wide selection of sushi, cocktails, and shared platters, the restaurant, which is located at 8 SE 8th Street in Miami, also has vast menu options. As a backdrop for its patrons, the interior is adorned with a contemporary design that is appealing to the eye and draws inspiration from Japanese culture.

Ahead of his move to the Major League Soccer, Messi disclosed that the way of life in the Sunshine State was a significant factor in his decision to play for Inter Miami. In light of the fact that he had won the World Cup but was unable to travel to Barcelona, he decided that it was time to travel to the United States League in order to experience football in a different way.

“I want to delight in the day-to-day activities more. Obviously with the same levels of responsibility and the same level of drive to win and to constantly perform well in everything. However, with a more tranquil demeanor.” Moreover, after eating at one of the best restaurants in the city, he has undoubtedly been having a good time enjoying himself.

A large number of A-list celebrities went to the game that was played at the DRV PNK Stadium on the previous Friday, which was Messi’s debut, and then they went to the restaurant in Miami after the game. There were a number of people present at Gekko, including the reality star Kim Kardashian and the NBA free agent Tristan Thompson.

During the summer of 2017, the steakhouse with a Japanese influence opened its doors to the public. Beckham, the CEO of Miami, was present at the launch together with Victoria, the wife of the Spice Girls. David Grutman, a hospitality entrepreneur, and Bad Bunny, a Puerto Rican musician, are the owners of Gekko.
