Messi recently surpassed Cristiano Ronaldo to become the all-time top scorer in the 5 major European league's history (496) following PSG’s 1-1 draw with Strasbourg on Saturday in Ligue 1.
The mercurial Argentinian could also match the record for the most assists in a Ligue 1 season, with PSG set to host Clermont Foot in their final game of the 2022-23 season next weekend on June 3.
The current record (18) is held by former PSG star and Messi’s Argentina teammate Angel Di Maria.
