Alejandro Faurlin to get Lionel Messi tattoo if Argentina win World Cup

Queens Park Rangers midfielder Alejandro Faurlin has promised to get a tattoo of Lionel Messi on his torso if Argentina win the World Cup in Brazil.

The 27-year-old already has Argentina legend Diego Maradona inked onto the left side, but will add the Barcelona star to his tattoo collection if he becomes a world champion.

"I already have one of Maradona on my ribs," Faurlin told QPR's official website. "I made a promise if Argentina win the World Cup, with Messi playing how he is, then I will put one on the other side."

Argentina will take on Germany in the final on Sunday.
