adidas is proud to celebrate Leo Messi’s record-breaking streak this month just weeks after the Argentinian star debuted his new adizero^TM f50 Messi boots in the UEFA Champions League.

Upon breaking the record to become Barcelona’s leading goal scorer, Leo Messi said: “When I was a little boy growing up in Argentina I always dreamt of a career as a professional footballer. From that point onwards, each goal I have ever scored has been special in its own way. It’s important to mention that I never would have broken the record without the talent and dedication of my teammates who have been with me every step of the way. Being the all-time top goal-scorer for such an amazing club is a true honour”.

Now an extension of the deadly forward’s game, the newadizero f50 Messi bootsfeature a sleek colour scheme of green, blue, pink, orange and white, along with the iconic adidas three stripes, and combine revolutionary technologies with the precision engineering befitting of a four-time Ballon d’Or winner. At only 165g, the adizero f50 Messi is one of the lightest shoes on the market.

Four-time Ballon d’Or winner Leo Messi has truly torn up the history books over the years and in the last month alone, he has become:

· the first Barcelona player in El Clasico history to score two hat-tricks

· the highest goal scorer in El Clasico history

· the top foreign La Liga goalscorer with 236 goals, breaking a Hugo Sánchez record of 234 that stood since 1994

· Barcelona’s all-time leading goal scorer, surpassing Paulino Alcantara’s record of 369 goals in 357 appearances between 1912 and 1927

Earlier this month, adidas announced the exclusive and limited edition “Messi 371”. A bespoke series of 371 pairs of adidas adizero f50 Messi boots to celebrate the Argentinian´s record-breaking 371 club goals in all competitions. In an adidas first, each pair of boots will feature a different design on the left and right foot, inspired by Messi´s goal scoring stats, separating the percentage of goals he’s scored with his left foot, right foot and head. The boots also carry the unmistakable Messi boot customisation with the name of his son Thiago and date of birth printed on the side of the product. Each pair will be uniquely numbered #001 - #371.
