French Ligue 1 club Olympique Lyonnais, popularly known as Lyon, created a creative video to announce their latest signing, Thiago Almada, from Argentina. The January transfer window is currently open, and the 23-year-old star footballer joined Lyon from Brazilian club Botafogo on an initial loan. The announcement by Lyon caught the viewers' eyes. In a video posted on their 'X' (formerly Twitter) handle, Almada received a text from 'Lionel' with a goat emoji beside the sender's name. The sender's text indicated that the message had come from legendary footballer Lionel Messi. The message that the 23-year-old star received said, “Don't listen to Cristiano, Ligue 1 is incredible.” This video message meant that Lyon took a hilarious dig at Cristiano Ronaldo's remark at the Globe Soccer Awards in Dubai. Ronaldo stated that the Saudi Pro League is better than Ligue 1.
