Based off the generally accepted definition of athlete, no.


I'd like to know what your definition of athlete is because I don't know if there is a "generally accepted definition of athlete". By nature sports with different requirements attract athletes that would be terrible at other sports.

For example, imagine any NBA player trying his hand at weightlifting. He'd be laughed out of the gym.

Another definition of athlete might be "most dominant/gifted player in a given sport", which is a good case for Messi, even though he's tiny and relatively weak and would be terrible at most other things.
