EVERY aspiring footballer dreams of becoming the next Lionel Messi.
But for less than a tenner, fans can eat like the Argentine after he opened the Messi family restaurant in Barcelona.




Messi and his brother Rodrigo and sister Marisol have proudly unveiled the ‘El Bellavista del Jardin del Norte’ in the Catalan capital, which serves up a number of delicious meals and beverages.
Rodrigo Messi owns the eatery, which is located at number 86 on Enric Granados Street near the city centre, and the brothers are hopeful it becomes one of Barcelona’s best-known locations.
Hungry supporters will be able to get breakfast, lunch and dinner at the restaurant, which has a 1000-square-metre garden.
And those looking to emulate Messi can at least eat like their hero, with his favourite dish taking prime position on the menus.
