Lionel Messi is often called the best player of all time. He holds 46 titles, including one World Cup and four European Champion League titles and eight Ballon d'Ors, the highest individual honor in soccer. In 2024, he won Major League Soccer's MVP award. But who is the player behind these impressive stats? What makes Lionel Messi so great? This book takes a deep dive into Messi's background, examining his beginnings, his struggles to reach the top, and even his thoughts on his soccer career. With Messi's arrival to Major League Soccer (MLS) in 2023, the most popular sport in the world experienced a revolution in the US. More stars from Europe, South America, and Africa followed, and the matches were soon televised on more channels and platforms than ever before. The explosive success of MLS motivated Time magazine to name Messi the greatest sports figure of 2023. To fully understand how Messi influenced MLS, this book takes a dynamic and in-depth look into his playing history-his beginnings, his career successes, his own personal stories, as well as what other players think of Messi's career. This is the amazing story of how one of the world's greatest soccer players revolutionized MLS.
