Paris Saint-Germain players have continue their impressive feat on and off the pitch as one of Lionel Messi’s longstanding records is broken.
Ousmane Dembele made history on Monday night when he was named the 2025 Ballon d’Or. However, in what was huge week for the club, another PSG star broke Lionel Messi’s record in grand style.
The club captain Marquinhos broke a record set by Lionel Messi.

Ranging from four that were worn in the game and signed, to those that were just issued, supporters had the chance to secure an incredible piece of history.
