Messi to finish 2026 World Cup as all-time top scorer

This market will resolve to "YES" if Lionel Messi finishes the 2026 FIFA World Cup with more career World Cup goals than any other player across all FIFA World Cup tournaments in history. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "NO.”

Messi currently has 16 career World Cup goals, level with Miroslav Klose's all-time record. Finishing tied at the top with any other player resolves to "NO."

Goals scored in penalty shootouts and own goals by Messi do not count toward this market.

This market will resolve as soon as all matches of the 2026 FIFA World Cup have been completed and official final goal totals for all players are available.

If the 2026 FIFA World Cup is cancelled or postponed after July 31, 2026, 23:59 UTC, this market will resolve to "NO."

The primary resolution source will be official information from FIFA.com; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
