Messi: Who is Lionel Messi and what is his latest news?

Who is Messi?

1. One of the most important football players of all time, Argentina’s Lionel Messi is one of the most statistical and complete goal scorers in the history of the sport, with 545 goals for Barcelona since he debuted in La Liga in 2004.
2. Most of those goals have been scored in the Primera División, with only 19 coming in the Copa del Rey, scoring 52 goals overall.
3. While the number of people who consider him to be the greatest footballer ever is debated, few questions are more hotly debated than whether or not he is truly the best in the world.
4. If he is, Messi is without a doubt the greatest player on the planet, and the best this world has ever seen. But there is another side to the discussion: Is Messi actually the best player who has ever lived?

Messi news

• After the World Cup, the football world will be focused on one man - Lionel Messi. The Argentina star has been unplayable this tournament, and he will be a favourite to win the Golden Ball award as well as the award for best player.

• He is the best player in the world, and he is showing no signs of slowing down. He has scored five goals in four games, including a hat-trick against Nigeria, and he has been the difference in Argentina’s march to the final.

• The question on everyone’s mind is when Messi will retire. He’s 35 years old, and he’s been playing at a world-class level for over a decade. Many have suggested that he’ll play until he’s 40.

• If he can keep up his current level of play for another four or five years, he’ll still have time to make a run at the 2022 World Cup.

messi vs ronaldo

• Messi and ronaldo are both great football players. But in terms of performing, Messi is far superior to ronaldo.

• In terms of the number of goals, from a statistical point of view, ronaldo is definitely the better player. In my opinion, the best player ever is Maradona, who has even beaten Messi in their head-to-head match-ups.

• Messi won a lot of individual awards. He won the Golden Ball, the Golden Boot, the Ballon D’Or, and he was named the best player in the world four times, which is a record he shares with Pele.

• He was also named by CNN as one of the 100 most influential people in the world. Messi is a great player and his talents are unmatched and unbeatable.

• Messi is simply the best all-around soccer player to ever live, but ronaldo is the greatest pure player to ever play football.

• But ronaldo is my favorite 'el pati�n' of the world. When I was a kid, I used to follow the Argentina national team, and I was always a fan of ronaldo.

• When I was younger, I used to go see him play every time I could. I still do, even though he is not playing anymore.

Messi's family life

Messi, a five-time FIFA World Player of the Year, is one of the best goal-scorers in the world and has won nearly everything there is to win on the pitch with Barcelona. But in his personal life Messi has faced a number of hardships, and his family life has been difficult to navigate.

He dropped out of school in the third grade. His parents didn’t want him to study Latin, so he didn’t learn it and went on to quit school in the fifth grade and focus on soccer.


Messi has two younger sisters, Maria and Xavi, who currently live away from him and, other than making a brief appearance in the 2014 FIFA World Cup final, have not been in public view since his father's death


The Messi family is one of the most famous and best-loved families in the world.

The three children of Lionel Messi - Leo, Andres and Giovani - spent their childhood in the Argentinian capital of Buenos Aires.

They attended ESADE, a business school famous for its world-class academics, situated on the campus of the Catholic University of Barcelona. In 1995, Messi, together with his siblings, emigrated to Barcelona, and in 1996 they moved to New York City, where they settled in the Washington Heights neighborhood.


Scarlett, his sister, who was nine when he was born, is played by her in a small role. She is three years older than him and grew up in Rosario, where her father studied medicine, and then in Madrid, where she studied political science.

Messi is also close to his grandfather, the late Jorge Messi, and to his father and mother, Jorge and María.

What is Messi's religion?

Not sure if this counts, but Messi is an atheist. He does admit to believing in Jesus, though, as he once said, he doesn’t want to be religious: “I’m not a religious person, and I’m going to remain like that.

I’m not saying I’m an atheist. I’m saying I don’t want to be closed off to it.”


Soccer star Lionel Messi is even-keeled and rather simple, but at the same time he is a devout Catholic, and has often been accused of being a religious zealot.

He says he prays before games on a daily basis, and is a religious man who is often seen sitting in prayer during international breaks.

He says he prays about his plays but only in a general way and currently believes that God is omnipotent.


Messi is a symbol of what a godly man is. He is a man who has spent his time in Godly training, who is one of the best athletes in the world, and who loves God so much that he would not hesitate to give his life for Him.

All around the world, people are talking about how Messi has changed so much since he left Argentina to come to Barcelona.

In his new life, he is even more secure in his faith, and is even more dedicated to serve God.
