Lionel Messi's luxury house on Ibiza has been vandalized.

The Spanish activist group "Futuro Vegetal" has published a video where members spray-paint the house's white facade with red and black paint.

The group writes in a statement that they wanted to highlight "the responsibility the rich have in the climate crisis".

Futuro Vegetal also says that they attacked Messi's house because it is an "illegal construction".

The house, which Messi bought in 2022, lacks a certification that the local municipality issues, as rooms in the house were built without a building permit.

Messi recently won the South American Championship with Argentina, and plays daily in the MLS club Inter Miami.
