Lionel Messi has been given a major incentive to finally move to the United States - because he won't have to deal with Salt Bae.
If you somehow haven't heard of him, Salt Bae - real name Nusret Gokce - is the enigmatic chef who somehow got in with the Argentina team on Sunday as they celebrated winning 2022 World Cup following a pulsating penalty shootout victory over France in Qatar.
Having gone viral in January 2017 for his unique technique for preparing and seasoning meat, Salt Bae's social standing has skyrocketed and he owns a chain of luxury steakhouses under the name of Nusr-Et which constantly attract celebrities. But he wasn't well liked by football fans when he awkwardly joined the Argentina players on the pitch at Lusail Stadium - and it's prompted another tournament's organisers to hilariously ban him.
