Is it possible to separate the artist’s work? This question is one of the biggest dilemmas and one that generates the most controversy. It is undeniable that Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé are two geniuses on the pitch, but their attitudes off are totally different. A new episode happened recently and it shows how differently the Argentine and the French behave when they are not on a soccer field.

It turns out that a few days ago, Paris Saint-Germain players have been invited to a charity gala for the Stronger Foundation. It was held in Paris and, logically, had the presence of the great club figures such as Lionel Messi, who participated with Antonela Roccuzzo, Kylian Mbappé, Neymar, among others.

He was present at the same event Julius Dean, a 29-year-old English magician who enjoys worldwide fame and has nearly 65 million followers on his social networks. The magician sharedthrough his Tik Tok account, a magic trick he performed with the Argentina national team captain.

A deck of cards, a pen and the Argentine’s good vibes were enough to complete his demonstration. The magician started by giving Messi the choice of a card and the PSG player took one ace of hearts. Soon after he made him sign that letter, put it face down in the deck and asked the ’10’ to place the letter between his two hands.

Holding the card tightly in Leo’s palms, he drew another. This time it was the turn of the 7 of hearts. With the newly chosen card, he had brief hand contact and when he turned over the card he had the ace of hearts signed by Messi. “Incredible”was the word used by the world champion, accompanied by his wife Antonela Roccuzzo, to describe what Julius Dean did.

Mbappé’s attitude

Kylian Mbappé hasn’t shown the same disposition and warmth that Messi had with the magician. To begin with, Dean asked the Frenchman what his favorite superhero was. “Me”, was the attacker’s self-centered reply. With quick reflexes, the wizard asked him about his favorite superhero from the movies. “Spiderman”the ‘Turtle’ replied this time.

When Julius Dean went to get the papers from his jacket pocket, he was only distracted for a moment, but that second was enough for the 24-year-old to go greet someone else and stand them up. “Wait, wait,” were the wizard’s words.

However, in the first instance Ahraf HakimiPSG player and friend of Mbappé, and then security, intervened so that the magician could not get any closer. “I’ll be right back,” snapped the Frenchman, but the truth is that he didn’t.
