Lionel Messi named BBC Sports Personality's World Sport Star of the Year
It meant he added football's biggest prize to a list of trophies that includes seven Ballons d'Or titles - awarded to the best footballer each year - four Champions Leagues, one Copa America, 10 La Liga titles with Barcelona and a Ligue 1 crown with PSG."It's everyone's dream when they're little. I've been lucky enough to achieve everything and what I was missing, I found here," Messi said after lifting the World Cup on Sunday.
With Paris St-Germain, Messi won a first French title in April and since the 2022-23 campaign began in August, has scored 12 times and provided 14 assists in 19 club appearances. Messi will turn 39 during the next World Cup in 2026 and had hinted previously the finals in Qatar would be his last. If it was, it truly was the perfect way to end his international career following Argentina's Copa America victory last year.
