Lionel Messi gets as close to roaring fire as possible as he watches Harry Potter with superfan wife and sons
LIONEL MESSI was keeping toasty as he watched Harry Potter with his family.
The Paris Saint-Germain star couldn't get any closer to a roaring fire as he laid out for film night in the French capital.
His wife Antonella uploaded a clip of the six-time Ballon d'Or winner watching the film with two of his sons, asking: "Is anybody a little cold?"
Messi's head was propped up by a cushion with his feet close to the fire.
And it's no surprise Harry Potter was Family Messi's choice for the evening.
Mrs Messi is something of a super fan when it comes to the bespectacled young wizard.
Whether it be the books or the films, Messi's stunning partner absolutely loves them - and even has a Harry Potter themed TATTOO on her arm.
Messi's childhood sweetheart has a golden snitch - an item used in the fictional sport of Quidditch that features in the series - tattooed on the back of her left arm.

She had the ink done in hometown Rosario back in the summer, a month before Messi's historic transfer to French giants PSG.
The pair have three children together - Thiago, 9, Mateo, 6, and Ciro, 3.
They married in 2017 after going public with their relationship in 2008, although they are thought to have been together for some time before that.
Messi himself is something of a magician with the ball at his feet, and to the delight of Roccuzzo has even been compared to Harry Potter in the past.
Ex-Juventus man Christian Vieri told last year: "Messi is a magician, he’s the Harry Potter of soccer and when he stops playing, I’m throwing my TVs away.
"I'm not going to work no more on TV, I’m going to watch Netflix, that’s it, because when he stops there’s nothing else to watch."
