Marquinhos threatens Leo Messi’s reign

Records are there to be broken. Even if you call Leo Messi and you are the best player of all time, someone can always appear to take away your historical mark, even if it remains untouchable for the moment.

There is no one who has won as many trophies as the Argentine player. After his performance last season in Major League Soccer, Messi increased his distance from his pursuer, a retired Dani Alves who added 42 throughout his time as a footballer, a few less than the Argentine, who has 47.

Without eating or drinking it, an unexpected player has appeared in the rearview mirror: Marquinhos. The captain of Paris Saint-Germain32 years old, won his second Champions League in Budapest, winning the same titles as his compatriot Dani Alves (42) in his career. That is to say, only a total of 5 titles separate him from Messi, which, given how PSG is launching, could end up being fulfilled.

For now, Leo Messi is now participating in his last World Cup, which he arrives defending as a champion and which he will try to revalidate to put the finishing touch to his career, which is not known when exactly it will end, as he continues to score goals and assists non-stop.

Achraf Hakimi, the most successful African player

At the record level, the one that did become number 1 in history, at least in Africa, was Achraf Hakimi. The best right back in the world played in a great final and was key to winning his third Champions League, already adding 19 titles to his name, crowning him as the African player who has lifted the most.

Specifically, Hamiki’s record is: 3 Champions League, 3 French Super Cups, 2 French Cups, 1 African Cup, 5 Ligue 1, 1 Serie A, 1 Europa League, 1 Club World Cup, 1 German Super Cup and 1 Spanish Super Cup.

Until now, the record was shared with no less than two legends like Samuel Eto’o (Cameroon) and Touré Yaya (Ivory Coast), who now share second position.
