Arat Hosseini is six years old. A small Iranian boy who lives with his father in England while his mother and sister live in the house. A family history, as you can often find it or something like that.
What is special about little Arat? He is an Instagram star. With his soccer tricks and shows, he has now thrilled three million followers, including former ManUnited star Rio Ferdinand and boxer Anthony Joshua.
Lionel Messi also became aware of the Insta-Tot and commented in a video of the six-year-old boy: «Thank you, Arat. I see a lot of class with you. Awesome! Let yourself be hugged! »
It won’t be long before an answer arrives: «Arat says he would like to play for Barcelona one day. Dream about it every night. And it is compared to Messi. He says he will be like him when he grows up.

Mohammad does his best to make his son the next Lionel Messi. Dad’s dream: Arat should one day represent Iran at the Olympics.
Damn, the child prodigy came out. Arat’s life and Mohammed’s approach also broke the criticism of Dad: “Sometimes people tell me that he could be accused of abuse. And others say that I would use my son to earn money from him.
However, he looks more like a philanthropist. «I share these videos so that other poor families can learn to be successful without great financial expenses. You just have to try it, ”says Mohammad Hosseini on Instagram.
In times of social media phenomena, questions about the ethics and will of a six-year-old seem like just a side note. At some point Arat will live his own life. Whether as a soccer star or as an Iranian Max Mustermann … (read)
