He was born in a middle class family who lived in Argentina, growing up in a football loving family. He developed passion for football at an early age. At 5, he showed great skills at a local club coached by his father but it was strange to see that he was way too shorter than the boys of his age. At 11 he was diagnosed with growth harmone deficiency and had to seek medical assistance. Unfortunately his family couldn't afford the treatment for long. Even though he was a great asset for his soccer club, but they refused to pay his bills. At age of 13, his life took an amazing turn. He got an offer from FC Barcelona that they would pay for his treatment if he played for them. So his family moved to spain with no money or job. All in the hope that his treatment will make him big enough to play soccer. At 17, he became the youngest player in FC Barcelona history to score a goal.
Today Lionel Messi is known as one of the greatest footballer's of all time and has won most Ballon d'Ors in the world.
