LIONEL MES SIS FIRST CONTRACT WAS ON A NAPKIN.

When the 12 year old boy arrived at Barcelona , from Rosario in Argentina along with his parents.
He was a very silent boy, did not speak much, either then or even now at 24 years His pet name is The Silent Assassin, or The Messiah.
Barcelona did not take him very seriously, as a long time investment as a player for Barcelona. As he was suffering from Hormone problems , that would be a costly treatment, and a big risk whether he would play for Barcelona in the first team.
So before he was admitted in the La Masiah Chalet , a hostel and academy where the youth stay and learn football, there are 333 youngsters there.
But the Barcelona staff took Lionel Messi to a resteraunt for lunch.
And yes the contract was signed by the club and Messi parents.
And you want believe it. It was written on a napkin.
