As he prepares to win the Ballon d’Or for an unprecedented eighth time during the presentation on Monday, Lionel Messi was observed getting a haircut in Miami. 

The 36-year-old World Cup winner posed for a photo in Vice City on Sunday, showing off his new haircut while holding hands with his barber, Luis Andres Rivera.

‘Dropping off the biggest [G.O.A.T.] @leomessi ready for tomorrow,’ Rivera wrote on Instagram. Momentous occasion on which, by the grace of God, he shall claim his eighth [Ballon d’Or].

I appreciate your faith in me, Leo, and the opportunity to make what could be the most significant edit of my career with your blessing. 

THE WORLD WILL WATCH IT HAPPEN.
