I didn’t do anything to become the best player in the world, God gave me this gift: Lionel Messi

Inter Miami and Argentina superstar, Lionel Messi has revealed that God is the reason for his success as a footballer. The 37-year-old, who is currently playing for Argentina at the Copa América in the United States, said he has tried to make the most of the gift God has given him. “It is very clear to me that I was born this way because God chose me. It was a gift he gave me.” he told podcaster Juan Pablo Varsky

“I have always been different. People came to look at me. I didn’t realize it, but I only started to understand it when I got older. “Of course, I tried to take advantage of it [talent]I tried to make the most of it, but the truth is that I didn’t do anything to become the player I was as a child.”

Yes, Leo has a gift: one in a billion, without a doubt. But he doesn’t give himself enough credit because he worked as hard as any other footballer to become what he is today: the best player in the world.
