Despite the prevailing impression of Lionel Messi's decline with Paris Saint-Germain from his level with his former team Barcelona, the Spanish newspaper "SPORT" confirms the opposite through an exciting statistic.
The newspaper said that the Argentine star is the most dangerous player in the five major European football leagues, according to the "Opta" football statistics network, as he leads the statistic that combines shots on goal and goal making with a total of 63 opportunities, significantly ahead of his runner-up.
Kylian Mbappe shares second place in the statistics with former Barcelona player Gerard Deulofeu, the current Udinese star (48), followed by Neymar (46).

The statistic indicates that Messi (35 years old) still has the quality of technical skills, even if his physical fitness has declined, which is clearly demonstrated by his brilliance with his country, which is preparing for the Qatar World Cup 2022.
Perhaps his last goal against Nice in the French league confirms that he still has a lot to offer to fans of the round witch.
