He has now via All About Argentina revealed why he named his dog Messi.

“My dog’s name is Messi, when I was young I always said if I got a dog I would name him Messi, because for me [he] is the best player in the world.

“Then we decided we would get a dog, and the first thing I said to my wife is if we got a dog we would name him Messi.”
