Controversial influencer Andrew Tate marks Twitter return with 'epic' picture with football icons. Image: @cobratate/Twitter
Andrew Tate posted a superimposed picture of himself with Messi and Ronaldo after being reinstated on Twitter by Elon Musk, who also unblocked former US President Donald Trump.
The picture of Tate posing alongside the football greats comes after Messi and Ronaldo appeared together for the first time together in an advert.
In the picture for Louis Vuitton’s latest campaign, the two footballing legends are playing chess.
The photo, which has already among the most-liked Instagram posts, appears alongside the caption: “Victory is a State of Mind,” and shows Messi and Ronaldo playing chess on a checkered Louis Vuitton suitcase.
However, in Tate’s picture, the former kickboxer and Big Brother star stands in the background while the international footballers play chess.
