Lionel Messi has been in the news lately because of the Qatar 2022 World Cup won by Argentina in front of France. And if the Pulga has just won the trophy he was missing in his career, he has also opened a new path that is that of the superstars of the round leather.

Lionel Messi has a career that any professional footballer would like to have. Since the Argentine who has long suffered failures with his selection has finally found the coach he needs: Lionel Scaloni. This last one who knew how to adjust the individualities of this Argentine team to make it a very great soccer nation that equals its prestige. Better, personally, he has achieved a career as a coach as very few have done.

Indeed, Lionel Scaloni has allowed Argentina to put an end to more than 35 years of drought by winning three major trophies in less than 3 years, a feat that no one would have imagined possible given the recent misfortunes of Argentina in major competitions. And of course, this feat suits Lionel Messi’s business, captain of the Argentinean team. With his victory in Qatar, he won the only trophy he was missing, the World Cup. For this reason, some people already consider him the greatest footballer in history.

But, with all the successes and records he has achieved, he may be missing one, the Super Ballon d’Or. This is a prize awarded by the magazine France Football, which also awards the Ballon d’Or. This prize was awarded to Alfredo Di Stefano in 1989 for being the best footballer of the last 30 years. Players such as Johan Cruyff, Michel Platini, Franz Beckenbauer and others have competed with the former Real Madrid player. Today, there is no argument, since Lionel Messi has no competitor, so if the prestigious magazine decides to award it again, the winner can only be the Argentine.

At 35, he is still one of the best footballers in the world, adding to his records and leaving very visible traces: Champions, Leagues, Cups, Super Cups, Club World Cups, Copa America, Finalísima and World Cup, among many other trophies that leave the number at 42. And it can continue to increase, because with PSG, they are aiming for everything this season and, as he said, he will continue to play for the Albiceleste national team to enjoy the third star on his chest.
