Lionel Messi and Inter Miami teammates surprise Luis Surez in the middle of an overnight flight
Lionel Messi and his Inter Miami teammates embarked on a 7,468-mile flight to Saudi Arabia for the next phase of their globetrotting pre-season journey.
Amidst their travels, the team had a special plan up their sleeves for Luis Surez, who celebrated his 37th birthday on the flight. As the ex-Barcelona striker boarded the plane, little did he know that a surprise awaited him.
Having already played matches in El Salvador and Texas, the Herons are gearing up for two more games in Saudi Arabia, including a much-anticipated clash against Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr on February 1.
Despite the demanding schedule, the team didn't miss the chance to make Luis Surez's birthday a special and unforgettable occasion, showcasing the camaraderie that extends beyond the football field.
As Messi flashed a grin and Jordi Alba flaunted stylish Louis Vuitton luggage, the team embraced the spirit of celebration, turning a routine flight into a lively and joy-filled experience.
The players packed heavily ready for the adventures that lie ahead on their globetrotting football journey as they have no imminent return home for another couple of weeks.
