All trophies won by Lionel Messi: the full list of his 48

Lionel Messi has won 48 trophies for club and country — 35 at Barcelona, six with Argentina, three at Paris Saint-Germain and four at Inter Miami. No footballer in the men’s game has won more.

The 48th arrived on 16 September 2026, when Inter Miami beat Cruz Azul 2-0 to win the Campeones Cup. The total is still live: he retired from international football in October 2026, but he is under contract in Miami through the 2028 season.

Total 48

One naming note, because it trips people up: the Finalissima and the CONMEBOL–UEFA Cup of Champions are the same trophy. It is the one-off match between the champions of South America and Europe, and Argentina won the 2022 edition 3-0 against Italy at Wembley. Some lists use one name, some the other; nobody is counting it twice.

You will also see totals of 44, 45 or 46 quoted for Messi elsewhere. Those are not errors so much as different rules about what counts — super cups, one-off curtain-raisers, youth and Olympic titles, and whether a league-table award like the Supporters’ Shield belongs on the list at all. We set out the four questions that move the number, and where Messi sits against every other player, on our most trophies won by a player page.

Barcelona: 35 trophies in 17 seasons

Three-quarters of the collection was won at one club. Messi came into the Barcelona first team at 17 and won La Liga in his first season, 2004-05, off a handful of appearances.

The two peaks are the trebles. In 2008-09, under Pep Guardiola, Barcelona won La Liga, the Copa del Rey and the Champions League, and Messi scored in the final against Manchester United — the first time a Spanish club had done the treble. He did it again in 2014-15 under Luis Enrique, which made Barcelona the first club to win the treble twice.

The Champions League record is the part people misremember. Four European Cups sounds like a steady drip across a 17-year career, but they are bunched: 2006, 2009, 2011 and 2015, and none since. The last of them was more than a decade ago.

Paris Saint-Germain: three trophies in two seasons

The PSG spell is the thin part of the cabinet. Two Ligue 1 titles and a Trophee des Champions across 2021-2023, and no Champions League — which was the entire premise of the move. PSG went out in the round of 16 in both of his seasons.

Inter Miami: four trophies, and the club’s first

Messi arrived in Florida in July 2023 at a club that had never won anything. He has been there for all four of its trophies.

The Leagues Cup in 2023 came within weeks of his debut. The Supporters’ Shield in 2024 is awarded for the best regular-season record in MLS rather than for a knockout win, which is why some trophy counts leave it out. The MLS Cup on 6 December 2025 is the one that settles the argument: a 3-1 win over Vancouver Whitecaps at Chase Stadium, Miami’s first, and the club became the 16th franchise to lift it in the league’s 30-year history.

The fourth came as MLS Cup holders. On 16 September 2026 Inter Miami beat Cruz Azul 2-0 at Nu Stadium to win the Campeones Cup, the annual one-off match between the MLS Cup winners and a Liga MX champion. Messi headed the first goal in the 24th minute, his 100th for the club, and set up Casemiro for the second. The 2026 Leagues Cup got away: Inter Miami went out in the group stage after a 3-2 home defeat by Leon on 12 August, and Toluca won the final against Monterrey on 6 September.

Argentina: six trophies, and four lost finals before them

The international half of the list took longest and is the half he is judged on. Messi won the U-20 World Cup in 2005 and Olympic gold in 2008, and then nothing with the senior side for thirteen years.

In between came four lost finals: the 2014 World Cup against Germany, and the Copa America in 2007, 2015 and 2016. He announced his retirement from international football after the 2016 defeat and reversed it weeks later.

The run broke at the 2021 Copa America, won at the Maracana against Brazil. The Finalissima followed in 2022, then the World Cup in Qatar in December 2022, then a second Copa America in 2024 — four senior international trophies in three years, after thirteen with none.

The World Cup that got away

Argentina reached the 2026 World Cup final and lost it. Spain won 1-0 at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, Ferran Torres scoring in the 106th minute against ten men after Enzo Fernandez was sent off in stoppage time at the end of normal time.

Messi went to the tournament in a record-equalling sixth World Cup squad, broke the tournament’s all-time scoring record along the way and finished on eight goals, two behind Kylian Mbappe’s Golden Boot haul of 10. The Golden Ball went to Spain’s Rodri. Our report on the final has the full account.

So the 2026 World Cup did not add to the total, and only two nations have ever successfully defended a World Cup. The 48th trophy came two months later, in Miami.

Individual awards are not in the 48

Trophy counts are for team honours. Messi’s individual haul is a separate list, and the headline number there is eight Ballons d’Or — 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2015, 2019, 2021 and 2023. Cristiano Ronaldo is next on five.

He is also the only player to have won the World Cup Golden Ball twice, in 2014 and 2022, the second of those in a tournament his team actually won. For the full side-by-side, see our Ronaldo vs Messi career comparison, and our take on where the GOAT debate stands.
