UPDATED TO INCLUDE MESSI'S FIRST SEASON AT PSG

The story of one of the greatest footballers of all time, Argentina's Lionel Messi.


'I have seen the player who will inherit my place in Argentine football and his name is Messi' Diego Maradona

On 10th August 2021, Lionel Messi's beautiful Barcelona fairy-tale came to an end as he completed a dramatic move to Paris Saint-Germain. Despite flourishing in the blue and white of the national side, delivering Argentia their first silverware in twenty-eight years by beating Brazil on their home soil to win the Copa América, Messi endured a difficult first season in Paris.

A saga filled with financial turmoil, presidential machinations, and broken promises, Guillem Balague's unprecedented access to Messi's inner circle has allowed him to reveal all in this newly updated edition of Messi, an authoritative and compelling account of an enigmatic footballing genius.

'I can tell my grandkids one day that I coached Lionel Messi' Pep Guardiola

 
 

Review

You may know a lot of the Messi legend already, but his is still a fascinating backstory. - Four Four Two

There's certainly some interesting insight and information...particularly Balague's understanding of Argentinian politics, culture and mores. ...The book glows with extended testimonies from those who ever coached or mentored Messi. -- David Stubbs - WHEN SATURDAY COMES
