Lionel Messi, one of the greatest footballers the world has seen, turns 33 on Wednesday and his fans can't keep calm.

Messi -- who was born on June 24, 1987 in Rosario, Argentina -- signed up with FC Barcelona when he was only 13 and has gone on to become a record-breaking footballer.

The Argentine continues to set new benchmarks for the others to follow.

Leo has won the Ballon D'Or six times.

He has won ten La Liga, four Champions League, six Copa del Ray, three Club World Cup and as many European Super Cup titles with Barcelona.

#HappyBirthdayMessi naturally trended on social media. Check out how some of his fans showered their love on him:
