It will be necessary to write a book to compile the records of Lionel Messi. The Argentinian opened the scoring with Paris Saint-Germain, Saturday in Strasbourg (1-1). A goal which will have guaranteed the 11th title of champion of France for PSG, and which will have a little more careful the statistics of the sevenfold Ballon d’Or.
Messi has now scored 496 goals in the five major European leagues (France, Spain, Germany, Italy, England). The former Barcelona player overtakes his eternal rival, Cristiano Ronaldo, by one unit. Portuguese now playing in Al-Nassr (Saudi Arabia) at 38he is unlikely to return to Europe to dethrone Messi.

Far behind the two megastars is Jimmy Greaves (366 goals), a former English striker for Chelsea and Tottenham in the 1960s. Messi, who will turn 36 on June 24, is out of contract with PSG. An extension seems highly unlikely. A return to Barça, where he might therefore push the limits of this record, is not excluded.
