LEO MESSI

Lionel Messi has won the golden ball, a prize that is given to the best football player in the world every year that it is given by a french magazine. But this time he has made a record because he has obtained 473 votes out of 480. I admired Messi because I think he is a modest person and he has never been involved in scandals like the most part of the football players.

Leo Messi borned in Rosario, Argentina in the 1987 and since he was a child he liked playing football but at the age of 11 he was diagnosed with a growth hormone deficiency. The most famous club in Argentina in those days were interested in capturing Messi but they couldn't pay the treatment for his illness, so the FC Barcelona offered him to pay the treatment if he moved to Barcelona and Leo's family and he were agree with this offer. In 2004 he was given the opportunity to play for the Spanish national team but he declined because he wanted to play with the Argentinian team and so he did.

Because of his dazzling skills he has won a lot of prizes during his career and he is just 22 years old. When he received his last prize, he said that he has won it because of his workmates and that anyone of his team could have been the winner.

We don't know much about his private life but it is a good characteristic of Leo Messi, because he doesn't like being in gossip magazines or something like that. We only know that he has an argentinian girlfriend.

He is simply the best not only like person but also like a football player.
