VIDEO: Lionel Messi Arrested in China

In China, at the Beijing airport, Argentina national team captain Lionel Messi was arrested. The incident occurred due to Messi's lack of a necessary visa to enter the country.

The footballer, who holds both Argentine and Spanish passports, attempted to visit China without the appropriate documentation, presenting his Spanish passport instead. However, citizens of Spain do not have visa-free entry to China.

The Argentina national team had arrived in China to participate in a friendly match against the Australian team. It is reported that the Argentine player had to wait at the airport for about two hours until the migration service issued him a visa.

Shortly after, the incident was resolved, and Messi was granted entry into the country.
