There are many African youngsters who are supporting Barcelona because of Argentine superstar Lionel Messi.
Lionel Messi is no doubt one of the best footballers on earth considering his performances for Barcelona and the trophies the Argentine has won.
The Catalans are currently occupying third position on the Spanish La Liga table with 46 points after 22 games played this term.

Earlier, Bioreports had reported how Argentine football legend Pablo Zabaleta urged his fellow countryman Lionel Messi to make a move to Premier League leaders Manchester City from Spanish side Barcelona.
The future of Lionel Messi at Barcelona has been the talking point among the club’s chiefs with his current deal expiring at the end of the ongoing League season in Europe.
Before the start of the current campaign, Lionel Messi wanted to leave Barcelona and even handed a transfer request to the club’s chiefs.
Messi was not happy with how Barcelona were bundled out of Champions League in an embarrassing fashion by Bayern Munich and also the side’s failure to win any title.
However, he later changed his mind to continue playing for the Catalans although he is still being linked with Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain.
