Lionel Messi signed his first Barcelona contract on a piece of tissue paper

Barcelona’s then general secretary, Charly Rexach, was so impressed with what he saw from a 13-year-old Messi within seven minutes of his trial he needed to sign him up fast.


 According to Goalaso.tv the only thing near that he could write on was a napkin, which both sides signed right on the spot.
