Inter Miami superstar, and former Barcelona tin god, Lionel Messi, has revealed the magic behind his successes in the round leather game.
The Argentina international said he was “chosen by God” to be a great footballer.
Messi made the disclosure when speaking about his exceeding footballing talent recently.
Answering question on the ability, he said, I tried to make the most of the gift God has given me.
The 37-year-old football magician is currently with his national team, the Argentina at the Copa América in the US.
In an interview with Argentina podcaster Juan Pablo Varsky, Messi said, “It’s very clear to me that I was born like this. Because God chose me.”
“It was a gift He gave me. I tried to take advantage of it. I did everything possible to squeeze the most out of it.
“The truth is, although I did many things, I did nothing to become the player that I already was when I was little.”
Recall that Messi began his playing career at Newell’s Old Boys. He later joined the Barcelona’s youth team when he was aged 13.
Messi is the most decorated football player of all time. He has won the Ballon d’Or eight times. Won the World Cup and lifted his 44th trophy after helping Inter Miami lift the 2023 Leagues Cup in August.
Many football followers have described him as the greatest of all time player.
