Spanish children would love to have Lionel Messi as their boss. Four other sportstars were named in the top 10 of a survey held by Adecco. 1,800 children between the ages of 4 and 16 completed the survey.
The Barcelona striker was named as the ideal boss by 21.9% of children, up one place from last year's rankings. Cristiano Ronaldo doesn't appear after he moved to Juventus.
Rafa Nadal (6.8%) is the only sportsperson who appears in both the boys and girls list.
Atletico Madrid's Diego Costa (6.3%) also makes the list, as does Isco (3.7%).
These results were part of an annual survery titled: "What do you want to be when you're older?" by Addeco. The top result for that question was a footballer (25.1%) for boys, with a teacher (19.9%) being the top answer for girls.

“There is nothing more satisfying than seeing a happy and smiling child. I always help in any way I can, even if it is just by signing an autograph. A child smile is worth all the money in the world.” Lionel Messi 👏 My Idol ♥️

MESSI deserves to be a favourite for everything he has done. UNICEF, charity, donations etc. he is the best for a reason. he is not only the best footballer but also a great human being.
