Lionel Messi is a former professional footballer from Argentina who is regarded as one of the best players in the world's history. He was the first player to win three European Golden Shoes and the only player in history to win five FIFA Ballons d'Or. He set numerous global records during his playing career, including the most goals scored in La Liga, a La Liga season (50), a calendar year (91), a single season (73), and a Champions League match (5), among others. He grew up in a football-loving household in central Argentina, where he developed an early interest for the sport and spent his childhood playing football with his siblings. He began playing for FC Barcelona's under-14 team when he was 13 years old, after joining Newell's Old Boys' youth club. Messi made his competitive debut at the age of 17 and rapidly established himself as a key member of the Barcelona team. His first major achievement came in the 2008-09 season, when he helped Barcelona win the first treble in Spanish football history. He went on to become Barcelona's all-time top scorer in official competitions and Argentina's all-time leading goalscorer with 55 goals in 112 games during the next several years. After Argentina's loss to Chile in the Copa América Centenario final in 2016, he retired. However, a push to persuade him to change his mind began soon after, and Messi later retracted his choice.
He grew up in Argentina with his parents Jorge and Celia, and his siblings: Maria , Matias , and Rodrigo . He married Antonella Roccuzzo in 2017. He and Antonella have sons named Mateo , Thiago and Ciro .
