The arrival of Lionel Messi to Major League Soccer (MLS) has caused a stir in the United States, with the Argentine soccer star attracting a crowd wherever he goes. To ensure his safety and privacy, Messi’s personal bodyguard, Yassine Cheuko, has been by his side at all times, ensuring no fan gets too close.
Cheuko, a former member of the North American troops who fought in Iraq and Afghanistan, has a background in martial arts, which he uses to keep Messi safe during public appearances. Recently, a video of Cheuko training with his coach, Luan Aguirre, showed the intense preparation and skills required to be Messi’s bodyguard.
In the video shared on Instagram, Cheuko can be seen throwing punches and kicks while his coach holds mitts for him to target. The training session highlights Cheuko’s dedication to his role as Messi’s protector and his commitment to maintaining a high level of skill in combat sports.
Since arriving in Miami, Cheuko has been training with Aguirre, who specializes in combat sports, to improve his martial arts skills and techniques. Their intense training sessions have not only strengthened Cheuko’s abilities but also enhanced his passion for combat sports.
As Messi continues to make waves in the US with his new club, Inter Miami, Cheuko remains a constant presence by his side, ready to step in and ensure the soccer star’s safety at all times. Messi’s quiet life in Miami is made possible thanks to the diligent work of Cheuko, who is always on alert to protect his famous client.
