The Kid Who Wore The Messi Plastic Bag Shirt Is Going To Meet His Hero

FC Barcelona are reportedly arranging for the child to fly to Spain to meet Lionel Messi.

After a week of searching, I was put in contact with an "Ahmadi" family in eastern Afghanistan, who claimed to be the child's family. As proof, they sent me an image of the boy wearing the plastic bag and holding up a sign on which he had written my name.

According to an English-speaking mediator helping me to communicate with the family, the child said "but my name's not Richard!", when holding up the sign.
