Breaking News: Messi’s Security in Altercation with Referee in Inter Miami, Charlotte FC Match

Thiago Maia, a security guard who works for Messi, has been involved in an altercation with a referee during a match between Inter Miami and Charlotte FC.
As a result, he was banned from attending games in the MLS and from being on the touchline for an indefinite period.
The MLS has taken swift action, issuing a statement announcing the ban and emphasizing the importance of maintaining a respectful and safe environment for all players, officials, and staff.
“The safety and well-being of our players, officials, and staff is of the utmost importance, and we will not tolerate any behavior that compromises this,” said an MLS spokesperson. “The actions of Mr. Messi’s bodyguard were unacceptable and will not be tolerated in our league.”
The ban is effective immediately, and the bodyguard will not be allowed to attend any MLS games or be present on the touchline until further notice. It is unclear at this time whether the bodyguard will face any additional disciplinary action.
Messi, who has been making headlines with his impressive performances on the field since joining Inter Miami, has not publicly commented on the incident, saying that he is “disappointed” by the behaviour of his bodyguard and is cooperating fully with the MLS investigation.
The incident has sparked a wider debate about the role of security personnel in professional sports and the need for them to maintain a professional and respectful demeanour at all times. As the MLS season continues, fans will be watching to see how this situation unfolds and what measures are taken to prevent similar incidents in the future.
