How Many Trophies Does Messi Have?

Lionel Messi is one of the most decorated soccer players of his generation.

The Argentinian maestro has had a stellar professional career so far, capped off with multiple trophy wins for the teams that he’s represented over the years.

In fact, Messi has won so many trophies for club and country that you can’t even count them with two hands!

Most players who participate in this sport on a professional level will be lucky to win just a couple over the span of their careers, so Messi is clearly one of those athletes in unchartered territory.

So, this article has been written to answer the common question of just how many trophies Lionel Messi have.

Let’s start with revealing the answer right away.

Lionel Messi has won a total of 41 titles ever since he made his competitive debut in 2005. The vast majority of those trophies were won when he played for FC Barcelona – 35 to be precise. He’s also managed to lift 4 trophies with the Argentinian national team, and his most recent achievement was the 2022 Trophee des Champions he won with Paris Saint Germain.

Read on for the full breakdown.

List of trophies that Lionel Messi has won

Messi has a massive trophy collection; it has to be said.

Here’s the full list of trophies he’s won ever since he started playing professional soccer as a 17-year-old.

Now Messi’s former Barcelona team mate – Dani Alves – is the soccer player with the most trophies in the history of the sport. Alves has a total of 42 titles to his name, but with Messi’s tally of 41, the man with the unique nickname is close on the heels of the Brazilian.

How many trophies does Messi have with Argentina?

Messi has lifted four trophies with Argentina.

These are:

• The 2005 FIFA Under 20 World Cup
• The 2008 Olympic Games
• The 2021 Copa America; and
• The 2022 CONMEBOL UEFA Cup of Champions

One of those were for the prestigious Copa America competition which usually comprises of matches against South American teams that are played at high altitudes.

How many individual trophies does Messi have?

When it comes to personal honors, Messi also has an impressive collection of awards.

He has won a record total of 7 Ballon d’Or titles, which are handed out to the players with the best individual performance across a season.

Who has won more trophies – Messi or Ronaldo?

Lionel Messi has won more trophies than Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Portuguese forward has 30 titles in his club career and a sum of 32 to his name overall, which Messi clearly surpasses with his impressive tally of 41.

It would take a miracle for Ronaldo to overtake Messi’s total here, as the Manchester United man doesn’t’ have much time left at the top especially at his age.
