Buenos Aires: The family of football star Lionel Messi has confirmed that his father, Jorge Messi, is undergoing medical treatment for an undisclosed illness and is recovering under medical supervision.
In a statement released on Thursday, the family said the 68-year-old was being monitored by doctors and was showing signs of improvement, but did not disclose details about his condition.
The statement came after false reports claiming Jorge Messi had died circulated in Argentina. The family urged the media and the public to act responsibly and avoid speculation about his health.
“At times like these, we ask for responsibility, prudence and humanity,” the family said, adding that any updates would be communicated through official channels.
Lionel Messi had earlier said he was dealing with a difficult personal situation following Argentina’s 3-0 win over Algeria in its opening World Cup match, though he did not provide further details.
