Following the conclusion of the domestic leagues, Leo Messi has finished the season as the player to have had a hand in the most goals across the major leagues: 46. The Barcelona captain netted 25 times, a return that earned him the Pichichi Trophy, and provided 21 assists.

Leo Messi has donned the Barcelona version of his new Adidas Nemeziz 19.1 boots, which he will wear in the Champions League, for the first time. The innovative design brings together the two cities that have left the biggest mark on his life, Barcelona and Rosario, and his number 10 shirt.

This Tuesday saw Leo Messi return to training with Barcelona ahead of the team's Champions League round-of-16 second-leg tie against Napoli.

On this day in 2011, Leo Messi was named as Historical Sports Heritage of Humanity in Argentina by the International Bureau of Cultural Capitals. This recognition highlighted his contribution to sport and society with ethical values and providing solidarity for children, as well as being a role model for young people.

Leo Messi is the player to have provided the most assists in a single LaLiga campaign thanks to the 21 goals he laid on this term. This feat takes its place alongside his seventh Pichichi Trophy after he topped the league's scoring charts.
