What the Numbers Show

His 2026 Prizm World Cup cards took the top two spots about three months after the tournament ended, while his 2023 Topps Chrome Sapphire autograph reached $102,000. For his full record, see our Lamine Yamal cards page.

Yamal led by dollars, while Messi sold more often. Counting sales of $19,000 or more in our sweep, Yamal had 14 for $953,995 and Messi had 19 for $843,077.

The Gold Prizm /10 gives the cleanest comparison from the same Goldin auction: Yamal at $244,000, Haaland at $36,600 and Bellingham at $21,417.

Several bigger October results are left out on purpose. Fanatics Collect still marked a $432,000 Yamal 1/1, a $204,000 Yamal 1/1, a $99,000 Messi 1/1 and two Messi rookies at $84,000 each as Unpaid when we checked on October 30, 2026, so we did not count them.

Our take: numbered Prizm and Chrome parallels are where the money went this month, and a card is only a sale once it is paid. For the all-time top end, see our most valuable soccer cards and most valuable Messi cards guides.
