#1 Lionel Messi
Was there any doubt as to who would head this list? The greatest number 10 Barcelona have had and will probably ever have, Lionel Messi is a footballer who defines an era. One of the two standout footballers of this generation along with Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi has won a staggering 28 trophies with Barcelona.
The only footballer ever to win the Ballon d’Or five times, Lionel Messi is an absolute phenomenon. The diminutive Argentine has been Barcelona’s main man since 2008 and has put in some spell bounding performances in the Champions League and La Liga.
Having scored 488 goals so far in his Barcelona career, Messi is the club’s highest scorer by a long way. Also the highest scorer in La LIga history, Messi is only set to add more goals to his incredible tally in the future. (Stats correct as of Feb 28th 2017)
