Lionel Messi’s statue in the Argentine capital of Buenos Aires has been vandalised for the second time this year.

The 30-year-old Barcelona superstar’s statue at the Paseo de la Gloria in Buenos Aires was targeted the last time in January, with this the second time that a similar incident has happened this year at the same place since the statue’s unveiling back in 2016.

While no one has been accused of doing the act yet, the statue’s legs were cut apart, with its body left on the ground.
