Attacking midfielder - Lionel Messi (Argentina / Barcelona)
The wait is finally over. Lionel Messi has won an international trophy with Argentina, and the relief was clear on his face after the final whistle in the Copa America 2021 final.
Messi was comfortably the best player at Copa America 2021, scoring four goals and providing five assists. The 34-year old was at his influential best throughout the tournament. While his impact in the final may have been minimal, there is little to complain about as far as Messi's Copa America 2021 performances are concerned.
The forward's inability to win a trophy with Argentina was often a sticking point in an otherwise storied career, but Messi has silenced his critics with the Copa America 2021 victory.
