MESSI: THE GOAT WHOSE GROWTH WAS RESTORED TO NORMAL BUT HIS FOOTBALL BEACAME ABNORMAL
Joseph Omoniyi
Arguably the greatest footballer to ever grace the face of the earth, Barcelona talisman, Lionel Messi was born 32 years ago.
At a very young age in his life, Messi was diagnosed of a disease called Growth Hormone Deficiency which meant was going to affect the normal growth of the Argentine and treatment is daily injection of GH which is extremely expensive.
Barcelona came to the rescue and paid. Today his growth is normal but his football is never normal.
He has won 34 club trophies, one Olympics gold medal, 5 Ballond’Ors, 6 European Golden shoes. 2 times UCL Player Of The Year, 1x World Cup Player Of The Tournament, 1x COPA America Player Of The Tournament. 800+ LA liga caps, 6 times most valuable player, 280 times player of the month, 671 goals, 271 assists.
Happy birthday to the GOAT!
