Even though Lionel Messi is without a question Argentina’s biggest star, he is not the most important player from his country.
Lionel Messi is the best football player that Argentina has had in a long time. The winger from Rosario proved his critics wrong in the last few years by helping the national team win the Copa America in 2021 and the World Cup in 2022.
At 36, the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner is still La Albiceleste’s most important player. So, Lionel Scaloni and the rest of his team want Leo to play in the 2026 World Cup.
Argentina will always have more chances to win when Messi is on the pitch. The three-time world winners can count on their captain, but they can also count on other players, some of whom are already better than their captain.
Messi is worth less than seven other players from Argentina.
Transfermarkt says that Lionel Messi is worth €35 million on the market. There are seven Argentine players who are worth more than him: Lautaro Martinez, Enzo Fernandez, Alexis Mac Allister, Cristian Romero, Julian Alvarez, Lisandro Martinez, and Rodrigo de Paul.
- Lautaro Martinez – €85 million
- Enzo Fernandez – €80 million
- Alexis Mac Allister – €65 million
- Cristian Romero – €60 million
- Julian Alvarez – €60 million
- Lisandro Martinez – €50 million
- Rodrigo de Paul – €40 million
This isn’t too much of a surprise, since a player’s age is a big part of how much they are worth on the market. Also, Argentina won the last World Cup for a reason. Messi may have gotten all the attention, but he didn’t do it all by himself.
