Back in November 2003, a young man at the age of 16 years, four months and 23 days old would make his first-team debut as a 75th-minute sub for Barcelona in a friendly against Porto. Less than a year later in October 2004, he would go on to make his league debut against Espanyol, playing a handful of games afterwards before scoring his first goal in May 2005 against Albacete. That goal was not only assisted by Ronaldinho, but cemented that teenage lad as Barcelona’s youngest ever goal scorer – and boy, did he not stop there. 🚀

Fast forward over two decades, and the legend that is Lionel Messi, is the most decorated football player in the history of the game. 44 team trophies including ten La Liga titles, four Champions Leagues, and of course the 2022 FIFA World Cup. On a personal level he has a record eight Ballon d'Or awards, a record six European Golden Shoes, and was named the world's best player for a record eight times by FIFA. One particular record every big Messi fan will remember is the 2011–12 season where Messi scored 73 goals in all competitions – the most goals scored in a single season in the history of European club football. In fact, he went on to score 91 goals that calendar year plus 22 assists, and it was only 69 games! 🤯
