Lionel Messi has brought his international career to an end and trading card company Topps have released a card to celebrate.
Messi had an excellent career on the international stage, which included winning the 2022 World Cup and reaching this year's final.
His final match, which came against Spain in the 2026 showpiece, ended in disappointment as Argentina lost 1-0 thanks to a Ferran Torres goal.
But Messi still excelled for his country, and Topps have now revealed their 'end of an era' card to celebrate.
There are three images of the player featured on the trading card from different eras of his career.
It also comes with an autograph and 'The end of an era – Messi retires from international football' is written on the card.
Topps are selling the standard version of the card on their website for $11.99, and one lucky collector who buys it will receive the 1-of-1 version.
After it was released, many fans have now taken to social media to share their verdicts.
One stated: "Stunning card!" while another commented: "Wonderful card."
Another added: "Whoever gets this card will have generational wealth," with a fourth suggesting: "This card will be worth 10M."
A fifth tweeted: "What a stunner," and another asked: "Surely this will be one of the most expensive cards he's had?"
