JAKARTA - Lionel Messi's record as a Barcelona player is almost impossible to describe, and the history of the Catalan club in recent years would not have come close to what it would have been having he not been there.
From the Argentine's arrival in the first team at Camp Nou until August 5, 2020, when his departure was confirmed by the club, Messi and Barca were the perfect match.
Together, they won more than 30 titles and Messi became the player with the most Ballon d'Ors in football history, with six trophies.
Messi lifted 10 La Liga titles, seven Copa del Rey trophies, and also the Supercopa de Espana crown.
He won the Champions League four times, the European Super Cup three times, and won three Club World Cups.
His last trophy with the club came in the form of the Copa del Rey in 2020/21. Beating Athletic Club 4-0 in the final, La Pulga scored twice.
