Apple Uses Lionel Messi Info On iPhone 15 Series

Inter Miami and Argentina superstar, Lionel Messi, has been featured in the launch event for the most recent smartphone series by Apple, the iPhone 15 series.

The American technology firm subtly inserted Messi’s name as they showcased their new devices for the first time.

Apple has become affiliated with Lionel Messi following his high-profile switch from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) to Inter Miami in the summer. An agreement was reached with the company to provide a percentage of profits accrued from subscribers on the Apple TV platform to the forward. While unveiling the features of the new phone, a slide came up where Messi’s name appeared in a notification pop-up.

This feature is known as the Dynamic Island, and it was first introduced in the iPhone 14 series. According to the pop-up, the forward had scored after only eight minutes to give his side a 1-0 lead against Atlanta United. The match actually took place in July and was the 36-year-old’s second game for the side.

He went on to add another goal as his side claimed a 4-0 win en route to winning the Leagues Cup.Fans of Lionel Messi took to X (formerly Twitter) to extol his virtues and describe his greatness in various ways.

A group of fans believe that the use of his name in the launch is evidence that he will win his eighth Ballon d’Or award next month.

Another group of fans were of the opinion that Lionel Messi is the face of global football and the biggest brand in football, as well.

One fan attributed the post to the fact that the forward now owns America, where Apple is headquartered.

Another fan took the opportunity to declare him as the GOAT, stating that such opportunities were only made available to the GOAT.

Messi has enjoyed enormous success in the beginning of his time in the MLS. The forward inspired Inter Miami to a first-ever trophy and has scored 11 goals in his first 11 games for the club.
