#3 Scoring for 2 different winning teams in Champions League final

Club-record scorer Messi has expressed his 'happiness' playing for Barcelona on numerous occasions. The possibility of the diminutive Argentinian turning up for another club during the course of his active career, much less score in a Champions League final for a club not named Barcelona, is very low.

Messi is still scoring at a prolific pace for the Blaugrana, and still winning titles. Thus, it may safely be surmised that despite no apparent dearth of suitors, Messi and Barcelona are unlikely to part company any time soon.

Cristiano Ronaldo remains the only player in Champions League history to have scored for two winning sides in the final (Manchester United in 2008, Real Madrid in 2014 and 2017).
