LIONEL MESSI’s bodyguard – who has become a viral hit for his presence at Inter Miami games – celebrated wildly after scoring a screamer in a new video.
Yassine Cheuko has been Messi’s bodyguard since his time at Paris Saint-Germain, and followed him during his move to Inter Miami.

But he has recently displayed a penchant for theatricality away from the Argentinian icon.
Cheuko has appeared in the media with several influencers, most recently joining content creator and freestyler Jeremy Lynch for a football video.
In the clip, Cheuko can be seen striking a ball on the volley from Lynch’s flick up, with the strike flying into the top left corner beyond the fingertips of the goalkeeper.
The bodyguard, reportedly raised in Paris, wheeled away in celebration, whipping his shirt off before doing several celebratory MMA-style moves.
He rounds off his celebrations by flexing his muscular physique towards the camera.
Football fans found the video hilarious, with some claiming that at one point he looks as though he is going to copy the celebration of Messi’s biggest rival, Cristiano Ronaldo‘s ‘Siu’.
One fan said: “He wanted to do siuuuuu but remember he might get fired next hour.”
Another added: “Bro trying soo hard not to hit that one celebration.”

It is not the first time the professional protector has garnered headlines for his off-pitch antics.
Earlier this year he responded to comments from Logan Paul about fighting Messi in the boxing ring.
Cheuko shut him down, saying: “Messi doesn’t even know who this guy is. If Logan really wants a fight, he can fight me.”
Cheuko is an accomplished martial artist and has shared videos of his intense training methods before.
He became a public figure as people began to notice him more and more as he shadowed the football legend everywhere he went.
He has jumped into action on multiple occasions to restrain overzealous fans trying to reach their idol.
