Messi's expansion in Spain

Spanish reports indicate that Argentine star Lionel Messi is close to completing a deal to purchase "C.D. Eldense," a team competing in Spain's Segunda División. This move further solidifies his involvement in club ownership after acquiring U.E. Cornellà in April and obtaining a stake in Major League Soccer's Inter Miami following the end of his playing contract. The deal is still awaiting approval from the Spanish Supreme Council for Sports and is expected to be announced soon, with a Colombian investment group transferring their share of the club to Messi. It is worth noting that Eldense is based in the city of Elda and currently ranks 20th out of 22 teams, following the recent sacking of their coach, despite the team’s history in the lower divisions.
