Messi's son signs for Barcelona

We can’t wonder why. Most of us saw this coming.

Another member of the Messi clan has joined the Catalans.

Lionel Messi’s eldest son, Thiago Messi has signed for Barcelona. The 3 year-old has joined the FCBEscola; a pre-kids training intended for children of athletes and members of all professional departments of the club as well as employees of the La Liga club. The project is targeted at kids between 3 and 5 years old who could then go on to play in the La Masia youth teams.

This interesting development is coming less than a week after the Argentine revealed in an interview that the lad isn’t so much interested in football.  “I don’t buy him many balls or force him to play with them because he doesn’t like them that much. Let’s see if he gets hooked.” He said.
