Messi`s new milestone surpasses Ronaldo

How long Lionel Messi will stay at the Parisian giants club is still uncertain. The echo of the club's supporters and PSG's recent attitude towards Messi goes without saying. Despite going through a bitter experience, this world-winning Argentine superstar did not leave his mark on the field game. After losing two matches in a row, Messi's goal in the third match brought a smile of relief to the French fans. At the same time, Messi also raised his name in the record books. He has surpassed arch rival Cristiano Ronaldo.

Although Portuguese superstar Ronaldo is no longer at a European club, the record he has built there is no longer to be erased. Messi and Ronaldo were equal goal scorers in Europe's top league with the 701st goal so far. This time, Messi has climbed to the top of that record. Messi gave PSG the lead in a 2-0 win over Nice last night (April 8). Through which Messi's goal number in European club football stands at 702.

Argentina stormed the desert in Qatar and snatched the coveted World Cup gold trophy. Captain Messi has led Albicelesta's achievement from the front. After that he is making one record after another. Having completed his career with the World Cup, Messi is touching a milestone when he steps on the field. He has contributed to a total of 1,000 goals in club football on the day he surpassed Ronaldo.

To score 701 goals for European clubs, Ronaldo, the striker of Saudi club Al-Nasr, has to play 949 matches. PSG forward Messi has overtaken him there. He scored the 702nd goal in 841 matches. After his debut in 2005, Messi scored 672 goals in the Barcelona jersey. He also scored 30 goals in PSG jersey. Messi is now the top scorer in Europe's top five leagues. He achieved this feat in an 18-year football career. Leaving Europe and moving to Saudi Arabia, Ronaldo has no chance to overtake Messi.

PSG lost 1-0 at home against León in their previous match in Ligue 1. After that, Lionel Messi had to hear from the supporters of the team. Many could not accept such behavior with this superstar who won the World Cup for Argentina. Such behavior of PSG fans has been strongly criticized by footballers like Thierry Henry. They did not stop there, they also urged to return to the former club Barcelona.

Messi definitely couldn't accept the fact that he heard a double from his home crowd. Last night, Messi responded to the insult. But he always gives his answer by performing naturally. Messi's new contract with the club is not being negotiated. Even if PSG wants to keep at least one more season, the world-winning star is not agreeing to it.

Right in the middle of it, some clubs including Barca stepped up to get Messi. They are appearing at Messi's door with incredible offers. Saudi club Al-Hilal has offered Messi a salary of more than 40 crores (4 thousand 619 crores 44 lakhs in Bangladeshi currency) euros. On the other hand, the American major soccer club Inter Miami wants to give this star footballer a share in the ownership of the club. However, so far no comments have been received from Messi about the change of team.
