Lionel Messi accused of breaching $7 million contract by sitting out a Florida soccer friendly‎

Lionel Messi is being sued by a Miami-based event promoter who says the soccer icon violated terms of a $7 million contract by missing an exhibition match last year. Vid Music Group filed the lawsuit for fraud and breach of contract against Messi and the Argentine Football Association in Miami-Dade circuit court last month, according to court records. Messi and the AFA didn't immediately respond to messages seeking comment.
