Messi began his senior club career with FC Barcelona in 2004, playing the first 17 years of his club career with the squad. He scored a whopping 672 goals during his time with Barcelona, averaging roughly 40 goals per season over that stretch. Following the 2020-21 season, Messi joined PSG. The 35-year-old hasn’t scored as frequently with the French club, scoring 28 goals in 62 caps. But he’s also shared the field with Mbappé and Neymar for much of his time with PSG. Messi wasn’t the only PSG member to reach a milestone mark in Sunday’s win. Mbappé scored the other two goals in the match, giving him 200 goals with PSG.
