According to journalist Gastón Edul, the South American Football Confederation (CONMEBOL) will announce the “Copa Interfederaciones”, a friendly cup tournament between teams from the CONMEBOL region and UEFA.
It is expected that Argentina can play friendly matches with top European teams such as Portugal, England, France… in March 2024.
Messi and Ronaldo will have the opportunity to face off one last time in 2024.
Among the possible matches, the most awaited match is definitely the great match between Portugal and Argentina, where Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are likely to face each other directly for the last time. In the two previous clashes, the victory was divided equally between both sides, with Argentina winning 2-1 in 2011 and Portugal winning 1-0 in 2014.
On the other hand, Argentina could also face England at Wembley; where they defeated EURO champion Italy to take home La Finalissima.
According to GOAL, the match schedule will likely be announced on November 9. In 2024, Argentina will attend Copa America in the US from June 20 to July 14. Therefore, playing friendly matches with European teams is an opportunity for Messi and his teammates to warm up for the journey to protect the throne.
