Lionel Andrés Messi, remember that name.
An Argentinian footballer has made quite a name for himself this week. 28-year-old Rosario lad, who goes by the name Leo, produced a spectacular scene when he dabbled in a bit of effortless keepy-ups with a fruit. The man, who now lives in Spain, was on set for a photoshoot with adidas when he lined up an orange and began controlling it with both feet in the most casually beautiful manner. A former player with Newell's Old Boys in Argentina. Lionel Messi's skills are no longer a secret to the planet. And the command he shows here with an orange must surely be enough to warrant him some respect amongst the football world. Messi's talents clearly aren't going unnoticed, with his own verified Twitter page already. You heard it here first - he's going places. Someone sign him up now. https://twitter.com/TeamMessi/status/664124667167293440?ref_src=twsrc%5EtfwExplore more on these topics:
