Football icon Lionel Messi will visit India in October 2025 as Argentina plays an exhibition match in Kerala, 14 years after his last appearance in the country. HSBC India, now an official partner of Argentina’s national team, confirmed the match as part of their promotional efforts. Messi’s previous visit was in 2011 when Argentina defeated Venezuela 1-0 at Kolkata’s Salt Lake Stadium. The Argentine Football Association aims to expand its global presence through this partnership.
