Lionel Messi in profile: the world's greatest footballer

Lionel Messi has broken many records as a striker and one of the world's best football players of all time - arguably the best. Born in Argentina and struggling with a health condition when he was 10 years old, he has overcome challenges, including his own introvert nature to become Barcelona's star player for most of his career. He left the club in 2021, although he is rumoured to return in 2023. We look at the incredible talent of Messi, his family and marriage to a woman he has known since the age of five, Antonela Roccuzzo. He led Argentina to world cup glory in Qatar. The team won against France on Sunday 18 December 2022.
