Lionel Messi has reached yet another remarkable milestone in his illustrious career. With Inter Miami's maiden MLS Cup triumph in 2025, the Argentine maestro
now holds 44 senior professional trophies, the most by any footballer in the history of the sport.
Messi's influence was once again decisive as Inter Miami defeated the Vancouver Whitecaps 3-1 in the MLS Cup final in Fort Lauderdale. The win delivered the club its first league title and marked Messi's third trophy with the Florida-based franchise, adding to the Supporters' Shield (2024) and the Leagues Cup (2023).
Most of Messi's silverware was earned during his iconic spell with FC Barcelona, where he lifted an astonishing 34 trophies. His honours with the Catalan giants include 10 La Liga titles, 7 Copa del Rey trophies, and 4 UEFA Champions League triumphs. His success also extended to international competitions, with three FIFA Club World Cups, three UEFA Super Cups, and multiple domestic Super Cups.
After leaving Barcelona, Messi continued adding to his legacy with Paris Saint-Germain, winning back-to-back Ligue 1 titles along with the Trophee des Champions, bringing his total in France to three trophies.
Perhaps the most emotional chapter of his career came with Argentina, where he transformed years of near misses into triumph. His international resume now includes the 2021 Copa America, the 2022 Finalissima, a second Copa America title in 2024, and the crowning jewel - the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, ending Argentina's 36-year wait.
These victories have brought his Argentina tally to four major trophies, completing one of football's most decorated resumes.
With 44 trophies and counting, Messi not only sits atop football's record books - he continues expanding the gap. Even deep into the later stages of his career, he remains influential, competitive, and capable of defining the biggest moments.
As Inter Miami celebrates a historic milestone, the football world celebrates Messi once more - a player whose story continues to be written in trophies, records, and unforgettable performances.
