The tax evasion report was as controversial as Lionel Messi’s career ever got. Until a picture with a blonde woman emerged on Argentinian magazine Pronto a couple days back. The picture shows Messi cuddling up to an unknown woman, with some reports saying that she was a stripper at a Las Vegas club. However, another report says that the photos are doctored and the entire scoop is fake. However, Fernando Cerolini, Director of Revista Pronto insists that the photos are not a hoax. Click here for his explanation. Antonella Roccuzzo, who is his long-term girlfriend and the mother of his nine-month-old son Thiago, is reportedly miffed about the incident and found out about it while she was on holiday in Ibiza with Cesc Fabregas and his girlfriend Daniella Semaan. [caption id=“attachment_1002051” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]  This screen-grab shows Pronto magazine’s cover.[/caption] Messi has been dating Roccuzzo since 2008 and his son Thiago was born last October. It remains to be seen how Messi, who has never found himself in a soup regarding his relationship with Roccuzzo, reacts to the images, given that they were splashed across a magazine in his home country — where he isn’t regarded as highly as he is in Barcelona. It was reported that the picture was taken after an exhibition match on 6 July. Barcelona have already lost a pre-season friendly against Bayern Munich 0-2 and drew 2-2 with Polish club Lechia Gdansk on Tuesday when Neymar featured in their colours for the first time.
