Winner of the Leagues Cup on Saturday with his Inter Miami team, Lionel Messi has become the most successful player in the history of football with 44 trophies.
Monument of world football, Lionel Messi has decided to live the end of his career on the side of Inter Miami. Glory of FC Barcelona, the Argentinian came out of two years at Paris Saint-Germain before taking over the management of the American Major League Soccer this summer. In just a few days, “La Pulga” has already won a first trophy with its new team by winning the Leagues Cup on Saturday at the expense of Nashville (1-1, 10-9 on tab). What offer him a forty-fourth career trophy. A record.
By winning Ligue 1 last May with PSG, Messi had equaled the record of forty-three awards held by Dani Alves. Now he is alone at the top of this ranking. It is obviously with Barça that the Argentinian has won the most trophies. Thirty-five in all when he was in Catalonia, including ten La Liga titles and four Champions Leagues. It was then with Argentina that he added a few trophies (five) to his list, including the famous 2022 World Cup.
Since 2004 and to follow
With Paris, Lionel Messi gleaned three titles. And the last one therefore arrived on the United States side on Saturday with Inter Miami. The Argentinian’s harvest, which began in 2004, may not yet be over. Everything will depend on what he and his team offer in the coming months and seasons. The start is in any case perfect.
