Lionel Messi is coming to New York, and fans are going crazy for tickets. The six-time Ballon d’Or winner will play in a friendly match against a New York All-Star team on August 26th at MetLife Stadium. Tickets are already on sale, and prices are starting at $496. But if you want to be in the same stadium as Messi, you’ll need to be prepared to pay a lot more. The most expensive tickets are going for up to $10,000.
Messi is one of the most popular athletes in the world, and his arrival in New York is sure to create a frenzy. Fans are already camping out in front of MetLife Stadium in hopes of getting tickets. The match is expected to sell out quickly.
If you want to see Messi against the Red Bulls, you're gonna pay through your teeth. From @ChrisDolmetsch and me https://t.co/qj4FYbSTcI
