See World Player of the Year Lionel Messi in London today!

The legend that is Barcelona and Argentina playmaker/goal machine Lionel Messi will be touching down by helicopter today in Central London.

If you have ever wanted to see the great man in action then you will have 3 opportunities this afternoon.  Adidas have launched the ‘catch him if you can’ event earlier this week which should be good fun to follow and be a part of.

So far the adidas football Facebook page has been giving clues out about the location and times that you can come along and find him.  In short he will be at 3 locations this afternoon, can you work them out from the clues?

1)  he will be coming onto a 11-a-side game as the ‘worlds fastest sub’.  As way of clue here is a picture of the location

2) if you want that new pair of the world’s lightest boot, the F50 adizero, this is the place you need to show up with your old boots for the trade-in. But get there quick… boots will run out!

3) this is the pitch where you could make yourself famous, and get to play alongside Lionel Messi in a one-off 5-a-side game! We’re looking for the fastest, most skilful kids in London to take him on, and only a few will be selected. So figure out where it is and get there fast!

you can keep up-to-date with the latest clues as they are given out at www.facebook.com/adidasfootball

See you there!
