This Iranian looks just like Lionel Messi
25-year-old Iranian Reza Parastesh is constantly stopped on the streets of Hamaden, because he looks just like Argentinian soccer star Lionel Messi.
So many people in the city of Hamaden wanted a picture with Parastesh that police took him to the station for disturbing public order, and impounded his car to stop the chaos.
The fuss started a few months ago when the Messi lookalike's dad made him pose in a number 10 Barcelona shirt. Soon he started cutting his hair and grooming his beard like the Argentina forward
Parastesh is fully booked with media interviews and has even landed modelling contracts. He also says that he is working on some football tricks so he can play the role better.
