Omar Hussam al-Din is a young man displaced from the city of Mosul to the Dohuk Governorate in Iraqi Kurdistan. He was displaced 7 years ago and lives in a popular hotel, and he is very similar to the star of Argentina and Barcelona's Spanish club Lionel Messi.
This likeness was a blessing and a good omen for him, since many Barcelona fans prefer to buy cigarettes and phone cards from him.
Omar is very famous on social media, but he works in the same profession, and most of the people of Dohuk still take pictures with him.
Omar says, "When Barcelona wins, my win doubles for normal days, when the team’s supporters come to encourage me, while I stay home and do not go to the market in the event of a loss for Barca to avoid distress and discomfort."
