Lionel Messi is one of the greatest players in soccer of all time. He has earned billions, won countless trophies, made countless records, and recently he achieved the pinnacle by winning the World Cup. The trophy he wanted the most, the glory his fans wanted the most for him. He has won 7 Ballon d’Ors more than anybody and now has won every tournament he has played in at least once.
The health and safety of any athlete is the primary concern, and that’s why their insurance is often the most expensive one. However, every insurance in the sports world, even that of Cristiano Ronaldo, will pale in front of Lionel Messi.
Stars like Cristiano Ronaldo and David Beckham also have very expensive insurance but none come closer to the Argentinian magician. This isn’t full-body insurance. What we are talking about in this article is one body part.
Messi has the most expensive legs in the world
Lionel Messi has ‘single footedly’ found success in the soccer world for years and years. With winning the World Cup, many fans are claiming that Lionel Messi has solidified his place on the top as the Greatest Of All Time. However, he was always one of the most significant players in the game.
It’s not even both of his legs. It’s his money maker. The leg he used to win every other dribble, to make shots, and to score most of his goals. They insured the infamous left leg at an eye-watering 900 million USD. This number pales all other insurance in sports.
