Lionel Messi is widely regarded as one of the greatest soccer players of all time. Even at 37 years old, he continues to perform at an elite level, showcasing his brilliance not only for Argentina’s national team but also for Inter Miami in the Major League Soccer.
However, even legends aren’t immune to the passage of time, as reflected in the fluctuating market values tracked by experts worldwide. In a recent update by Transfermarkt, a leading website specializing in soccer market analysis, Messi’s market value experienced a significant decline.
As of December 23, 2024, the Argentine icon’s market value dropped from €25 million to €20 million. This marks a sharp fall when compared to the start of 2024, where Messi’s market value stood at €30 million, a figure that held steady until September.
