Top ten players who have won the most trophies ever: Messi ahead of Ronaldo while Iniesta and Giggs feature alongside surprise Brazilian star
At the end of the day, it's all about winning trophies right?
Winning a major piece of silverware is the hardest thing to do in football — just ask Harry Kane...
He moved to Bayern Munich in pursuit of glory after becoming Tottenham and England's record goalscorer without a trophy to show for it.
But others make it look easy, with Lionel Messi adding a new honour to his collection only a month after joining Inter Miami.
With that in mind, talkSPORT.com looks at the top ten most decorated players of all time...
The only player on this list who won the majority of his silverware while playing in England — the Welsh winger's longevity was astounding!
Giggs is the most decorated player in United's history having won 34 trophies in a career which saw him make 963 appearances for his only club over 24 years.
Notable trophies won:
A modern great for Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus, Ronaldo's hunger for success has seen him break into the top ten.
Ronaldo has more individual awards than everyone on this list except rival Messi and has won everything, including league titles in England, Spain and Italy — and he has the goal records to match.
But the 38-year-old still falls slightly short when it comes to team honours despite his record five Champions League titles.
The five-time Ballon d'Or winner does seemingly have no retirement plans in sight, having won the Arab Club Champions Cup with Al Nassr.
Notable trophies won:
The Spaniard came through the ranks at Sir Alex Ferguson's Manchester United before returning to Barcelona to help his boyhood club win trebles in 2008/09 and 2014/15.
Pique, who hung up his boots in 2022, also played a starring role for Spain in their 2010 World Cup win and their Euro triumph two years later.
