The Argentinean will be playing his first match since the 2016 Copa América Centenario final, which he lost with Argentina against Chile.

New look, same skills.

That's how Lionel Messi is getting ready to face the 2016-2017 season with Barcelona, as the team shared a video on social media full of "La Pulga's" skills.

The one-minute long video footage shows Messi during a training session with Barcelona, but fans can appreciate Messi's skills in full detail, as the footage was shot in slow motion.

Two moments stand out in the video: Messi nutmegging Luis Suárez, even making the Uruguayan ace blush, and the other moment displays the Argentine ace scoring a long-distance goal even with several of his team-mates between himself and the goal.
