A 69-meter-high graffiti of his darling son and legendary footballer Lionel Messi is set to be installed in Rosario, Argentina. The graffiti is called 'From Other Galaxy, From My City' and was created by local artists Marilyn Juriaga and Lisandro Ertiga.
In this graffiti, Messi is seen as the captain of the national team wearing the number ten jersey and is seen holding his hand on his chest. Several school children have participated in the inaugural function organized by Rosario authorities. Paris Saint-Germain striker Messi started his career with Club Grandoli, close to Rosario.
