The world’s best player of 2009/ 2010 was born on June 24, 1987 in Rosario, Argentina and is only 24 years old.
Messi’s favourite music style is Samba and Chumbi.
His nickname is La Pulga Atomica meaning “The Atomic flea”, he has also been named Maradonita and Messidona by the Spanish press.
Lionel Messi was so small at infancy doctors said he would stop growing at 4 ft 7 inches if not treated with
growth hormones. His height today is 5 ft 7 inches… Thanks to the Argentine doctors.A life sized chocolate sculpture of Messi was made last Easter at a Catalonian bakery. It weighed 115kgs, 50 kilos more than the real person. (Ladies did you get a piece?)
Messi was rejected by Argentine giants River plate at age 11. The football club had refused to foot his medical bills which stood at $900 per month.
Barcelona FC through their sporting director Carles Renach offered to sign him and cover all bills if Messi and his family agreed to move to Nou camp in Spain.
His La liga debut was at the age of 17 making him Barca’s youngest player to score at the La liga.
