VIDEO. Messi’s room in Qatar to be turned into a museum
During the victorious 2022 World Cup, the Argentina national team lived on the premises of the University of Qatar. The university announced that they are planning to make a small museum out of the room where Messi lived.
The room will be left untouched. The conversion of the room into a museum will be completed in a few weeks. The opening date is not yet known.
The campus itself is painted blue and white. Contains a collection of signed t-shirts from Argentina national team players.
Here’s a quick tour of La Albiceleste’s base camp at Qatar University!
