Kate Abdo Shares Hilarious Reason for Messi's Rejection
Kate Abdo, the popular presenter for CBS Sports, has revealed that Lionel Messi declined a Champions League punditry role because of an ongoing feud with Jamie Carragher.
Messi's Disdain for Carragher
Messi has had a long-standing issue with Carragher, previously branding him a "donkey." The feud started in January 2022 when the former Liverpool star criticized Messi's move to Paris Saint-Germain.
A Missed Opportunity in Miami
Abdo and her CBS Sports team broadcasted last night's Champions League action from Miami, offering Messi the chance to make a guest appearance. However, Messi rejected the opportunity due to Carragher's involvement in the show.
Brushing Off the Snub
Despite Messi's refusal, Carragher brushed off the snub, jokingly calling it a "claim to fame."
