Lionel Messi, the American Inter Miami player and former Barcelona star, has not stopped winning individual and team awards throughout his continuous football career until now, and unlike the majority of players whose performance declines following the age of thirty, the flea is still continuing his odyssey at the age of 36.
As he entered his fourth decade in June 2017, the Argentine legend showed that he still had a lot to offer, and that he would not be stepping down from the football throne soon.
Last Monday, FIFA announced at its annual ceremony that Messi had won the “The Best” award for the year 2023, ahead of Norwegian Manchester City star Erling Haaland and Paris Saint-Germain top scorer Kylian Mbappe.
This is the third coronation in Messi’s career following the 2019 and 2022 editions.
These are the achievements of the “Bulga” since it exceeded 30 years, on both the individual and collective levels.
Collective titles
Messi succeeded in winning 4 titles in the leagues he played in since he was over the age of 30. As for global and continental titles, Al-Barghout won 3 titles: the Qatar World Cup 2022, the Copa America, and the Champions Cup “Vinalisima”.
- Individual achievements and awards
On the individual level, Messi scored 256 goals in the last 6 years, in addition to making 130 in various competitions and with the clubs he played for. As for individual awards, the 36-year-old won the Ballon d’Or 3 times, in 2019, 2021 and 2023, while he won the “Best” award 3 times.
Messi finished two seasons as top scorer in European leagues, which earned him the Golden Boot award twice. He also won the Best Player award in the 2022 World Cup and 2021 Copa America.
