Why was Messi’s security guard forbidden to take the field at MLS?
“They don’t want me anymore in the field,” said Cheuko. The bodyguard did not explain why, but proved upset about the decision: “Keeping me out of the field will not fix the problem. I love MLS, I love Concacaf, I would be happy to help. But everything is okay, I respect the decision.”
He claimed to know the behavior of fans who invade the field since the time he worked in Europe. “I worked in Europe, Ligue 1 and Champions League for seven years. In these seven years, I saw six people jumping in the field. I came here, I started in July 2023. Since then, 16 people have invaded the lawn in 20 months, so this is a real problem,” he said.

Messi Security Fight Challenge
A few days ago, Cheuko challenged Youtuber Logan Paul for a fight. The bodyguard has published a video on social networks, saying, “Listen, Logan. I’m making this video because many people stop me on the street, send me messages, a lot of comments on Instagram about this fight. Now there is no way to escape. Let’s make this fight for people.”
The motivation of the duel was the criticism of Logan Paul to Messi, who would have “copied” the logo of his brother’s energy company, Jake Paul.
In response, Youtuber said he would accept the challenge only if he was against Lionel Messi. However, Cheuko insisted: “You said I want attention, but who wants attention is you. Now, we will stop talking, because I know you are a YouTube product and I am a product product. In the streets, we do not speak. I see you in the ring.”
