Messi can win 41st trophy of his career this week - here's when he could smash Alves world record
Lionel Messi could win his 41st career this week when PSG faces Nantes in the Trophee des Champions on Sunday.
The Trophee des Champions is more like the local Super Cup in France contested between the Ligue 1 winners and the French Cup Champions.
PSG are clear favourites to win the trophy given their array of superstars, and of course the 'Messi factor'.
Dani Alves holds the Guinness World Record for the most career trophies won by a football player with 43.
However, PSG are contesting for three major trophies this season, which means Messi could smash Alves' record if the Parisians finally win the Champions League next May and two more domestic titles.
