The Argentina International spent most of his professional career at Football Club Barcelona. In his time at Barcelona, Messi’s contract reportedly fetched him over $1 billion. This led to people wondering if Lionel Messi was a billionaire. While rumours that the 36-year-old has earned nearly $1.3 billion from his career earnings have been floating around, his net worth in 2023 is $600 million.

The Argentine superstar’s contract with Barcelona in 2017 reportedly netted him $168 million annually. The earnings from endorsements for Lionel Messi are estimated to be around $40 million. This means that towards the end of his time with Barcelona, Messi made over $200 million a year, which is beyond impressive. A person’s net worth, however, is not solely based on their earnings. This is why, despite these ridiculous contracts, Messi is not a Billionaire yet and has a net worth of $600 million in 2023.

Lionel Messi’s Expensive Purchases and Possessions

Lionel Messi has a taste for luxurious cars. One of the hefty purchases he has made is when he bought the Ferrari F430 Spider for himself. Apart from this, the ex-Barcelona star has a plethora of other cars in his admirable collection. His collection includes the Audi R8 Spyder, Pagani Zonda Tricolore, and Mercedes SLS AMG. The 36-year-old reportedly also owns the 1957 Ferrari 335 Sport Spider Scaglietti. This is one of the most expensive cars in the world. The car was available at an auction, valued at approximately $36 million.

Now, let’s shift our focus from cars to real estate. The Argentine has invested quite a lot in real estate. Leo has a house in Castelldefels, which is very close to Barcelona. He also has a one-zero eco house. This house has been custom-made by Luis Garrido. Messi reportedly spent approximately $2 million on the house’s renovation. Lionel Messi also purchased a home in Pedralbes in 2009. Messi bought the house for $2 million and spent money on top of that on renovations. The house’s value is now estimated to be between $7 million to $10 million.

The ex-Barcelona star has also splurged on a private jet. Lionel Messi’s 16-seater private plane has a kitchen and two bathrooms. Each of the seats can be converted into beds. Leo reportedly spent $15 million on this private jet. A superstar like Messi would like to travel in style and with comfort, and this private jet is the perfect combination of both.
