LIONEL MESSI made the Ballon d’Or a family affair as he arrived with his wife and three kids.
Messi led his country to World Cup glory in dramatic fashion in Qatar last December, completing his incredible trophy cabinet.
And ahead of possibly getting his hands on the famous golden trophy once again, Messi was joined by his nearest and dearest on the red carpet at the Theatre du Chatelet in Paris.
He kept it simple this year with a navy tux completed with a bow tie.
Messi’s wife Antonela Roccuzzo dazzled in an off-shoulder dress while their three sons – Mateo, Thiago and Ciro – looked adorable in matching navy suits, white shirts and white trainers.
The Manchester City striker enjoyed a sensational debut season at the Etihad, scoring 52 goals to power his new side to a historic Treble.
His team-mate Bernardo Silva went for a routine tux and bow tie as wife Ines Tomaz stunned in a strapless cut-out black dress.
