Messi as a Greek, Turk, Italian etc (photos)

From traditional hairstyles and hairstyles to traditional clothing of each country, the portraits created by the AI offer a unique perspective of what Messi would look like in different parts of the world

Newsroom June 30 01:01

A few days ago Lionel Messi turned 36 and celebrated in his home country, Argentina.

Leo led his country’s national team to victory in the 2022 World Cup at the Qatar stadiums and greatly increased his fans around the world.
According to many, he is the GOAT of the sport and is adored in Europe, Asia, America, and Africa.
A user on Tik Tok (@charactercraze) wanting to show that Messi is… global decided with the help of artificial intelligence to give him the face of Greek, Turkish, Spanish, Italian, Iranian, and many other peoples.
His transformations are sometimes successful sometimes unsuccessful but the result is beautiful. Messi is very good as a Turk but also as an Afghan.

From traditional hairstyles and hairstyles to traditional clothing of each country, the portraits created by the AI offer a unique perspective of what Messi would look like in different parts of the world.
