 Lionel Messi, his beginnings and his life story




Lionel Messi is an Argentine professional footballer who currently plays for Paris Saint-Germain and the Argentina national team. He was born on June 24, 1987 in Rosario, Argentina.

Messi began playing football at a very young age and joined the youth team of his local club, Newell's Old Boys. At the age of 13, he moved to Spain to join Barcelona's youth academy, La Masia.

Messi quickly rose through the ranks at Barcelona and made his first-team debut at the age of 17. He has since become one of the greatest footballers of all time, winning numerous individual awards and helping Barcelona win multiple domestic and international titles, including ten La Liga titles and four Champions League titles.

Messi is known for his exceptional dribbling skills, close control, and ability to score from any angle. He has won the Ballon d'Or award, which is given to the world's best footballer, a record seven times.

Off the pitch, Messi is known for his philanthropic work. He has established the Leo Messi Foundation, which focuses on providing education and healthcare for vulnerable children around the world.

In August 2021, Messi made a high-profile move to Paris Saint-Germain after his contract with Barcelona expired. He continues to play at a very high level and is considered one of the greatest footballers of all time.




Early Life: Lionel Messi was born in Rosario, Argentina to a working-class family. His father, Jorge, worked as a factory steel worker, and his mother, Celia, was a cleaner. Messi was the third of four children and had a passion for football from a very young age.

Messi's family was supportive of his football dreams and encouraged him to play. However, he faced a medical issue as a child - he was diagnosed with a growth hormone deficiency that stunted his growth. His family couldn't afford the expensive treatment required, but Messi was eventually scouted by FC Barcelona, and the club agreed to pay for his medical treatment and bring him to Spain to play for their youth academy.




Career at Barcelona: Messi joined Barcelona's youth academy, La Masia, in 2000, and quickly rose through the ranks. He made his first-team debut in 2004, at the age of 17, and began to establish himself as a key player for the team.

Messi's career at Barcelona has been nothing short of spectacular. He has won 10 La Liga titles, 7 Copa del Rey trophies, and 4 Champions League titles. He has also won numerous individual awards, including 7 Ballon d'Or awards and 4 European Golden Shoes. He is the club's all-time leading scorer and has scored more than 700 career goals for both club and country.

Move to Paris Saint-Germain: In August 2021, Messi's contract with Barcelona expired, and he became a free agent. After much speculation, he signed a two-year contract with Paris Saint-Germain, joining a star-studded team that includes Neymar and Kylian Mbappe.

Off the Pitch: Messi is known for his philanthropic work through the Leo Messi Foundation, which he established in 2007. The foundation focuses on providing education and healthcare for vulnerable children around the world. Messi has also been involved in several charity matches and initiatives, including the "Match for Peace" and the "Messi & Friends" exhibition matches.
