Messi names his favourite TV show

The 36-year-old isn't all about football and, on a few occasions, has been seen trying other adventures, but recently, on the Big Time Podcast, he shared insights into his private time.

The former Barcelona captain was quizzed about his private life outside football on the show, which led to him naming his favourite television series of all time.

“Game of Thrones. I've watched it more than once,” he said.

Game of Thrones is an eight-season HBO television drama that aired between April 2011 to May 2019. A prequel series, House of the Dragons, premiered on the platform in 2022.

Per Marca, Messi and his wife, Antonela Roccuzzo, met GOT star Kit Harington, who starred as Jon Snow, in Paris in 2022 during a UEFA Champions League game between PSG and Benfica.
