Footballers and their adorable childhood pictures – Part 1

Del Piero Pepe Ibra
All the great ones had a childhood to remember as well

Lionel Messi

This has to be the best Messi picture of all time
I may have been wrong with my previous caption

When you look at his childhood pictures, you can’t help but think that he hardly looked like someone who would go on to become the best player ever, arguably, of the beautiful game. The Argentine was a timid, shy figure and was always the smallest player in his team.

He was so cute that it makes me wonder as to how he wasn’t spotted by some Hollywood agent and signed on a child artist contract for commercials or movies. Actually, thank goodness that he wasn’t—otherwise we would have missed out on witnessing something we are probably never going to see again.

So this is it for now. We will be back soon with part two, so watch this space!
