      The Londoner took Messi’s phone and attempted to play a trick with the flashlight on the phone.
      Dein seemingly took the light off of it directly before putting it in his mouth, chewing it and then blowing it back onto the phone.
      However, Messi was not to be fooled and simply responded: “I know this one,” before producing a gleaming smile.
      The shutdown left Dein joking: “Well that didn’t go according to plan 🤦‍♂️,” before admitting: “I’m retiring.”

      Lionel Messi topped the poll of FIFPro players, selectors, journalists and fans with 52 votes.
      And the next four on the list were also no great surprise.
      French hitmen Kylian Mbappe and Karim Benzema notched 44 and 34 votes respectively.
      Then came Croatia’s evergreen midfielder Luka Modric and Etihad goal machine Erling Haaland.

      But controversy hit once the list got down to players with fewer than 20 votes.
      Sadio Mane was sixth, ahead of Alvarez and Moroccan stylist Achraf Hakimi.
      The next four places were taken by Neymar, De Bruyne, Vinicius Junior and Lewandowski.
      And Chelsea’s Brazil defender Silva, 38, broke ranks when he saw that ranking.

      Responding to protests over Alvarez’s bit-part role, Silva wrote: “It’s a joke”.
      But the City man’s Argentina team-mate Messi has defended him, saying: “During the whole World Cup, he was extraordinary.
      “He ran everything. He fought for everything – creating chances, fighting. For us, he was the surprising discovery, and he deserves everything that has happened to him because he is a lovely guy.”
      But to make the Fifa ratings even more embarrassing, Fifa initially listed alvarez under “Spain”.
      In fact, no Spanish players made the top 14, while England’s only representative was Jude Bellingham. More

      Fans are just realising Pepe’s real name as Portugal legend, 40, takes Cristiano Ronaldo’s vote in Fifa Best awards

      by

      FANS are just discovering Pepe’s real name after the 40-year-old voted in the Fifa Awards.Despite being the captain of Portugal in last year’s World Cup, Ronaldo did not cast his votes for Fifa’s best male player like the other international captains.

      That duty instead fell for Pepe, who opted to vote for Kylian Mbappe, Luka Modric and Karim Benzema in first, second and third respectively.
      But fans were less interested in who he voted for and more so in the name that was down on the official Fifa documents.
      Instead of referring to him as Pepe, as he is commonly known in football circles, Fifa instead called him by his real name.
      He was listed down as Kepler Ferreira, with Pepe just a nickname for the defender.
      READ MORE FOOTBALL NEWS
      It came as a surprise for some football fans who had long known him only by his nickname.
      On Twitter, one person wrote “Pepe??” when they saw Ferreira’s name on the document.
      When another tweeter explained it to them, they said: “wtf I feel ashamed.”
      Pepe has had and continues to have a long and distinguished career playing football at the top level.

      The centre-back then left for Porto for three years when he began to establish himself as a top level defender.
      From 2007 he then spent a decade at Real Madrid and made well over 200 appearances.
      In recent years he has spent time at Besiktas and then returned to Porto in 2019.

      Kylian Mbappe gives stone-faced reaction as Emi Martinez wins Fifa Best Goalkeeper award after mocking him at World Cup

      by

      KYLIAN MBAPPE was clearly unimpressed when Emi Martinez was named Best Fifa Men’s Goalkeeper.World Cup final hat-trick scorer Mbappe sat stony-faced as the Argentina hero who mocked him after that epic clash in Qatar received his award.

      Mbappe gave a chilling look but Martinez warmed the hearts of others in the audience, such as Lionel Messi and Arsene Wenger, with a tribute to his hard-working parents.
      The Aston Villa stopper beat Morocco and Sevilla keeper Yassine Bounou and Belgium’s Real Madrid No1 Thibaut Courtois to the prize.
      Martinez stunningly foiled Mbappe’s France strike-partner Randal Kolo Muani near the end of extra time in a classic World Cup final.
      He then saved Kingsley Coman’s shootout penalty and distracted Aurelien Tchouameni before the Real Madrid midfielder pulled his spot-kick wide.

      Martinez was one of the first to console Mbappe after Argentina’s 4-2 shootout triumph following a 3-3 draw.
      But he later faced a major backlash for his strange dressing-room celebrations and taunting of the beaten PSG superstar.
      The former Arsenal second-choice keeper called for a minute’s silence for “dead” Mbappe and held up a baby doll with the frontman’s face on it.
      Martinez’s antics were particularly eccentric as he was right next to Mbappe’s club-mate Messi, who did not appear to react.

      Mbappe has insisted he was not bothered by the stopper’s behaviour
      And Martinez has tried to rubbish claims he was trolling the pacy ace.
      The 30-year-old told France Football: “I held it [baby doll] for like two minutes and I threw it away, that’s all. 
      “How can I make fun of Mbappe? He scored four past me. Four goals in a final! He must think I am his toy baby! I have huge respect for Mbappe.”
      When receiving his Fifa award, Martinez said: “They always ask me who my idols are or who I watched when I was a kid… 
      “Watching my mum clean buildings for eight or nine hours and watching my dad work. They are my idols.”
      Meanwhile, Messi pipped Mbappe to be named best male player.

      PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi ‘investigated over alleged kidnap and torture in Qatar’ as French judges launch probe

      The allegations relate to the alleged kidnapping and torture of lobbyist Tayeb Benabderrahmane, 42, reports Lequipe.
      Al-Khelaifi denies all allegations against him – and has vowed that “justice will run its course”.
      Benabderrahmane alleges that he was snatched in Qatar in 2020.
      He claims he possessed documents with compromising information on Al-Khelaïfi.
      His lawyers, Maïtres Romain Ruiz and Gabriel Vejnar, have said they are “very satisfied” with the decision to investigate the case.
      “We are very happy that the real file of this story is finally the subject of an investigation by the French justice,” they told AFP.
      It is alleged the case was linked to sensitive documents regarding the awarding of the 2022 World Cup to Qatar.
      And the awarding of television rights for the 2026 and 2030 World Cup to BeIN Media – of which Al-Khelaifi is chairman.
      Most read in Football
      In a statement, Al-Khelaifi said: “You are talking about professional criminals.
      “They’ve changed their lawyers more times than they’ve changed their stories and their lies.
      “It is the ultimate media manipulation. I’m just amazed so many people have taken their lies and contradictions as credible – but that’s the media world we’re in today.
      “Justice will run its course – I don’t have time to talk about petty professional criminals.”
      Benabderrahmane claims he was detained for six months in Qatar after being arrested in January 2020.
      He claims he was tortured during this period before being placed under house arrest.
      The lobbyist says he was then allowed to leave in November after signing a document promising not to divulge “sensitive” documents linked to Al-Khelaïfi.
      French news outlets, including Le Point and L’Independant, report the Benabderrahmane filed a civil action – which allows a judicial investigation to be launched.
      Al Khelaifi, 49, was previously investigated over the World Cup bid over his relationship with former FIFA member Jerome Vackle – but he was acquitted.
      It is the latest blow for PSG – and it comes after Morroco-born ace Achraf Hakimi being accused of rape.
      PSG are currently leading Ligue 1, but have seen a dip in form since the World Cup.
      Al-Khelaïfi was a member of the organising committee of the World Cup and is the chairman for Qatar Sports Investments (QSI).
      He is a former tennis player – reaching a career-high ranking of 995 in 2002.
      Al-Khelaïfi was made president and CEO on PSG after QSI took over the club in 2011.
      He has spearheaded the Paris side’s regeneration and made it the dominant force in French football – winning the Ligue 1 title eight times since 2012/13.
      Read More on The Sun
      The boss oversaw the signings of players such as Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, and Neymar Jr.
      The club however have so far failed to win the Champions League since the takeover – but face a key Round of 16 clash next week against Bayern Munich. More
