Argentina’s Central Bank has released a 1000 peso
commemorative note featuring Leo Messi’s image with his signature after winning
the World Cup.
The Argentine National Team captain led his country to a
World Cup victory on Sunday 18th December, 2022 after beating France
National Team on penalties and was honored with “Beshth” by Emir of Qatar as a
sign of respect. A black cloak that is worn by Arabian warriors and also royal
family.
And now the Argentine captain and “GOAT of football” has
been honed by his country by printing a 1000 peso commemorative note of his
face and signature present on it. 1000 Argentinian pesos are currently worth
$5.74
The newspaper El Financiero is reporting that he could be
immortalized on 1000 peso note. This is because the number begins with a “10”
which references Messi’s iconic shirt number for “La Albiceleste”.
The rest of the World cup winning squad known as “La
Scaloni”, named after head coach Lionel Scaloni, would be pictured on the back
of the note.
This has raised argument all over social media. Some fans
are extremely happy about the initiative and claim he is one of the greatest
human to grace the earth whiles others are saying it isn’t a priority of the
country as they’re facing inflation problems. They claim that with or without
Messi, the Argentine peso will continue to be worthless and that the country is
deteriorating to do nothing. Some too believe it will lift humanity standard
among fellow men and also in the world of football.
Can the new initiative taken by the Argentina Government and
Central Bank help put their country’s economy in a good looking shape?
The bigger question is will you spend it or keep it as a
souvenir if you do get access to the note?
