Barcelona star Lionel Messi fails in attempt to go undercover at Disneyland Paris

Lionel Messi is known for making football look cartoon-like but who knew he was actually a massive fan of Disney?
The Barcelona superstar was spotted at Disneyland Paris twice in less than six months....just a week after his Barcelona side completed the greatest Champions League comeback ever over Paris St Germain.
Apparently, the French theme park is one of the midfield maestro's favourite destinations when he gets time off from playing for the Catalan giants.
Messi took advantage of some down time with girlfriend Antonella Roccuzzo and their children Thiago and Mateo at the Parisian amusement park.
The world famous No. 10 lives in Barcelona but after being handed two days off by Luis Enrique he decided to make the special Disney trip.
He appeared to he doing his best to go unnoticed as he sported a heavy hoodie, cap and big sunglasses but fans spotted him and got selfies.

According to reports in France, Messi ran into PSG defender Marco Verratti at the theme park - although it is doubtful they would have talked football after Barca’s incredible Champions League comeback .
Barca lost their La Liga lead last weekend as they suffered a shock 2-1 defeat to Deportivo La Coruna .
They will be desperate to come back to form against Valencia on Sunday - as they attempt to cut back on Real Madrid’s two point lead at the top of the the table.
