Lionel Messi is considered by many to be one of the best players in football history. He has tasted many glory in the Barca shirt but not always found the same feeling in the Argentina national team.
However, that ended when El Pulga and Argentina won the Copa America 2021, right before he left Barca to go to PSG. Messi’s next goal in La Albiceleste’s shirt is to win the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
This will be the last chance for the 35-year-old star to realize that great dream. The reason is because Messi has officially admitted that the upcoming World Cup is his last during an interview with journalist Sebastian Vignolo:
Messi revealed that the upcoming World Cup is the last.
“This will be my last World Cup, that’s for sure. The decision has been made.”
At the next World Cup, Messi will be 39 years old. However, it remains to be seen whether El Pulga will retract this statement in the future. That depends on the condition of the striker born in 1987.
So far, the former Barcelona captain has made 164 appearances for Argentina. He scored 90 goals, thereby becoming the number one scorer in the history of Tango football. Messi is one of Argentina’s two greatest players next to Diego Maradona.
