An excerpt from this Lionel Messi biography:

Pelé and Diego Maradona. For decades, these two men were the only names who could be credibly called the greatest soccer players in the world. That all changed on December 18, 2022, when Argentina won the 2022 World Cup. After that, another man joined Pele and Maradona. That man was Lionel Messi. With a World Cup title under his belt, Messi could truly claim to be one of the greatest players of all time. However, his career is so much more than one winter tournament in Qatar.

Lionel Messi is one of the greatest players in the history of soccer for his illustrious club career, his decade-long international career, and his ability to dazzle millions of soccer fans with his skills, grace, and explosiveness on the ball. Simply put, Lionel Andrés Messi is a living legend.
