Lionel Messi‘s move to Miami apparently didn’t come with a personal shopper … ’cause the soccer legend was spotted out at a Publix on Thursday — roaming with the normies to make sure his cupboards were stocked with cereal.
Just two days after he touched down in Florida to begin his new career in the MLS … Messi evidently needed some food for his crib so badly, the $600 million man took it upon himself to hit up a local supermarket to nab some groceries.

The 36-year-old soccer G.O.A.T. pushed his own cart and traversed through some gawking fans to make the run … and at the end of it all, he walked away with what appeared to be several boxes of sugary breakfast treats.
The footballer, though, seemed to have a relatively easy time being out in public … while he did pose for a selfie with at least one fan at the store, most seemed to let him go about his business without bothering him.

Of course, that’s a stark contrast from his usual norm in Argentina … where most of his nights out involve being swarmed by hundreds of fans.
But, Messi is still getting the VIP treatment, at least in some parts of his new home … while out at a dinner earlier this week, he had to deal with several people who had lined up to get a glimpse of him on his way to his car.
BACKGRID
Messi is slated to be formally introduced by Inter Miami on Sunday … so it might be another few days before the mania around the soccer player really kicks off in South Beach.
So, until then, enjoy the Reese’s Puffs, Lionel!
