Leo Messi is turning into the artist genius Leonardo Messi. Following the steps of legendary Italo-Argentinian player Omar Sívori, born in Argentina but of Italian origins as Messi (Recanati as the great poet Leopardi), and playing for the Italian national team (also Altafini from Brazil), a source said Lionel, looking for new motivations, both with Barcelona club and Argentina national team, is gonna do the same as Sívori, playing for both Argentina and then his historical homeland.The 33-year-old ace was recently approached by Inter Milan, having a lot of cash available with Chinese Suning.
But the move seems bigger, as some of his friends in Rosario said one night in March visiting his relatives, Lionel told them : "finalmente ganaremos algo con Italia", finally we're gonna win something with Italy, probably referring to the fact that Argentina is always doing bad, despite having Messi.
He clearly wants to be considered as great as Maradona playing for Napoli.
The Italian national team is getting better and better with Mancini as manager but has no great leaders as in the past.
Some read in Lionel's words a reference to the large population of Argentinians of Italian origins, the Pope too, an incentive to redeem.
Recently the Argentinian vice-president Cristina Kirchner said Italians are mafiosi by genetics, but that would make mafiosi more than the half of her own population.
