Is Lionel Messi of Italian ancestry?

Answer 1

Most Argentines are from Italy anyway. Back in the day, people were surprised about how successful Argentina was at the time and immigrants from Europe came over to Argentina over time. You can say that Argentina is like a Mini-America with European roots.

Also, his cousin's name is Maxi Biancucchi. Can it be any more Italian?

Lionel Messi is of several different backgrounds. In an interview with MUTV he told the interviewer that most of his family were actually of English ancestry. His father happens to be the only one of a different ancestry: Italian. However his mother has Lebanese ties but is 75% English ancestry...approximately.
