8 time ballon d'or winner started his journey when he was just 16 years old. Since then, he's amazed fans all over the world.

In 2008/09, Messi played a crucial role in his team's success, contributing to their victory in three major competitions.

Meanwhile, Messi's outstanding performance not only helped his team win trophies but also earned him his first Ballon d'Or award.

From the 2009/10 season until 2018/19, Messi consistently scored at least 40 goals each season for Barcelona.

After leaving Barcelona in 2021 due to the club's financial issues, Messi joined Paris Saint-Germain from 2021 to 2023.

Since 2023, he has been showcasing his talent with Inter Miami.

Recently, Soccer superstar Lionel Messi surprised fans by sharing a video on his social media account which hints at his transition from footballer to industrial entrepreneur.
