'I have seen the player who will inherit my place in Argentine football and his name is Messi' Diego Maradona
FULLY UPDATED TO INCLUDE THE 2022 WORLD CUP TRIUMPH & MESSI'S TRANSFER TO INTER MIAMI
As Lionel Messi raised the World Cup triumphantly into the air, the world watched on in awe. Messi's final peak conquered; his final dream achieved. It was the fairy tale ending to a glittering career. Yet despite delivering Argentina their third World Cup, Messi's time at Paris Saint-Germain came to a dramatic conclusion, and Miami awaited the Argentinian legend.
Guillem Balagué has had unprecedented access to Messi's inner circle including the player himself: his coaches, team-mates and family. From tracing the origins of Messi's precocious talent in Rosario, Argentina, to chronicling his peerless seventeen-season career at Barcelona, and his tumultuous Parisian adventure, Guillem takes us behind-the-scenes of Messi's World Cup triumph and his long-desired move to the MLS. This is an epic, authoritative and compelling account of an enigmatic footballing genius.
'I can tell my grandkids one day that I coached Lionel Messi' Pep Guardiola

I like how he cited multiple sources, including his own, to back claims and stories included here.
The narrator also does a good job of telling the story. He switches the mood/tone whenever needed so that he won't sound monotonous.
I'd definitely recommend this audiobook to football fans and even those who are not.
In-depth look at Lionel Messi

However, Peter Kenny’s narration is extremely poor. First of all, the dynamics of his voice are highly monotonous, with every sentence following the exact same flow. Secondly, poor pronunciation of the many words of Spanish origin in the book make it really hard to follow the details which you might have wanted to Google.
All in all, great book, very poor choice for narrator.
Amazing book, very poor narration

Lots of interesting details but at times felt it was too wordy, or went beyond the scope of the book….like we don’t need head the full line up and subs of a game that happened in 2010 :)
Overall got a deeper look and understanding of Leo.
Pretty good, but long
