Veteran footballer Leonal Messi suffered a major setback during the League Cup 2025. Messi’s bodyguard, who played for America’s club Inter Miami, had a big mistake from Yasin Cheauko, due to which he has now been banned. He made this mistake after the match of Inter Miami CF and Atlas FC in the League Cup 2025, due to which the disciplinary committee of the tournament took this big step. This ban has been imposed on Yasin Cheauko for 1 month.
Mistake from Yasin Cheauko
Actually, after the end of this match, when the players of Atlas were meeting Lional Messi, Cheroko came on the football field to save the experienced player. He was wearing a black T-shirt. During this, he pushed the players of Atlas. The players of the Atlas team were also not happy with this thing and only then this action has been taken on them. The Leags Cup has released a press release in which he said, after the match between Inter Miami and Club Atlas on July 30, Yasin Cup has been suspended from going to the technical area with the remaining matches of Leagues Cup 2025.

Regarding this matter, Atlas defender Mathews Doria said, “We know that the board works well and he will handle it.” We understand that Messi’s bodyguard is for their safety and it is their responsibility to stop any fan. But they do not have permission to do so among the players.
Yasin Cheauko has done such an act before
This is not the first time that Yasin has protected Messi on the pitch. Even before this, he has intervened in the match many times. In April 2025, Inter Miami took action on him and said that he would remain in the sideline in MLS matches. Despite this, he did not listen to the club.
