Messi has played three UCL finals for Barcelona.

Out of the five Champions League trophies that Barcelona have won, Messi has played in three finals, winning all three. The striker made his three appearances in 2009, 2011 and 2015 respectively.

However, it is Andres Iniesta who holds the record for most Champions League final appearances. The 2006 Champions League final remains the only difference the Spaniard and Messi.

An injury denied the Barca attacker from featuring in the final versus Arsenal. However, it remains to be seen if Barca can reach the finals this year.

With Iniesta gone, Messi has a good chance of etching his name across this record. However, it remains to be seen if Barcelona can play two more UCL finals so that the Argentinian can break his former teammate’s record.
