Argentina captain Lionel Messi has added four more Guinness World Records to his name following his latest appearance at the FIFA World Cup.
In a post on social media, Guinness World Records said Messi broke four records in a single day, further cementing his place among football’s greatest players.
According to Guinness World Records, Messi now holds the record for the most FIFA World Cup goals scored by a football player with 18 goals.
He has also set new records for the most FIFA World Cup matches played by an individual (28), the most World Cup matches won by a player (18), and the most minutes played in FIFA World Cup history (2,489).
“We are witnessing history,” Guinness World Records said while highlighting the latest milestones achieved by the Argentine star.
The records add to an already remarkable career for Messi, who has won multiple Ballon d’Or awards, lifted the FIFA World Cup with Argentina, and continues to rewrite football’s record books at the age of 39.
His latest achievements come as Argentina continue their campaign at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, with Messi once again playing a central role for the defending world champions. (Newswire)
