Carlos Alcaraz and Lionel Messi (Source- ATP tour)
There has been an army of iconic stars in the World of sports who have inspired the next generation of athletes who have come up as brilliant sportsmen. The upcoming star in tennis who we all are proud of is none other than Carlos Alcaraz who has gone on to win 4 Grand Slams which include 2 Wimbledons, 1 Roland Garros and 1 US Open. This has currently made him one of the most dominant players in the sport at the age of just 21. We all are sure that there is still a lot more success to come for the Spaniard going forward.
Other than Alacraz there is also another iconic sportsman who also peaked early into his career as a player and on this occasion, it was in the beautiful game of football. The man is none other than Lionel Andres Messi, who is one of the best football players in the World right now. It is always a pleasure to see sportsmen peak in their teens and these two are the players who have done it and have now become a global icon for everyone to follow. It is incredible to see how these players have gained success at an early age and we have enjoyed every moment of their career.
The two superstars finally met
There is no doubt that we enjoy both these players in their respective sports, but it is an even greater moment to see the moment when these two icons meet each other. This is the moment we will be talking about since it happened last year during the Laureus Sports Award, where the young Carlos Alcaraz finally met the World champion and was excited to see him being a major football fan himself. This was a bit of a fan moment for the Spaniard who saw the legend at one of the biggest Award ceremonies. It is safe to say this was a moment that Alcaraz would have remembered for a long time.
Watch the video below-
It was great to see both these great athletes known for their incredible talent in the same room. Even Messi seemed to have liked his interaction with the Spanish superstar. This is one of the moments as fans that we might never get to see a lot and that is why we should cherish it as much as we get the chance to do so. While Messi is already one of the greatest of all time, Alcaraz with the way he is going is most likely to reach that level very soon as well.
