Lionel Messi is a professional football player from Argentina who is widely considered to be one of the greatest footballers of all time. He was born on June 24, 1987, in Rosario, Argentina.
Messi started playing football at a young age and was soon scouted by the youth team of Newell’s Old Boys, a professional football club in Rosario. However, when Messi was diagnosed with a growth hormone deficiency at the age of 11, his family was unable to afford the treatment. As a result, Messi was offered a contract by FC Barcelona, a Spanish football club, who agreed to pay for his medical treatment in exchange for him playing for their youth academy.
Messi joined the FC Barcelona youth academy in 2000 and quickly rose through the ranks to make his first-team debut in 2004. He became a regular in the team soon after and helped Barcelona win numerous domestic and international titles over the next few years. Messi has won 10 La Liga titles, 7 Copa del Rey titles, and 4 UEFA Champions League titles with Barcelona, among other honors.
Messi has also had a successful international career, representing Argentina in numerous international tournaments, including the FIFA World Cup and the Copa America. He helped Argentina reach the final of the 2014 World Cup, where they lost to Germany, and has won the Copa America in 2021.
Messi is known for his incredible skill, speed, and precision on the field, as well as his ability to score goals from a variety of positions. He has won numerous individual awards throughout his career, including seven Ballon d’Or titles, which are awarded to the best football player in the world.
Off the field, Messi is known for his philanthropic work, including his support for children’s hospitals and his establishment of the Leo Messi Foundation, which works to provide healthcare, education, and sports opportunities to underprivileged children.
