In a recent interview with STAR+, Messi talked about his thoughts on the future, as well as the 2026 World Cup.
Messi is now 36 years old, in fact, this age for most players can consider retirement, talking about how long they can play in the future, Messi is said that he has said many times before, he will try his best to play the game, when can not play, he is the first to know as I.
Of course, Messi also admitted that his current league is a small league, a lot of things depend on themselves and the team to face the competitive environment in the end.
If he feels he can continue to make a contribution then he will continue to play and the only thing on his mind now is to get into the squad for the Copa America and play in that tournament and try to win it.
After winning the World Cup in 2022, Messi actually now has no regrets at the national team level, many people are looking forward to his participation in the 2026 World Cup, for this issue, Messi's view is that time will tell his answer, but Messi said that in general, 39 years old is a difficult age to participate in the World Cup. He thought it unlikely that he would go there.
And he also said that he did not consider the 2026 World Cup, of course, he is not saying that 100% will not participate in the World Cup, anything can happen, considering his age, the most normal thing is that he will not participate in the 2026 World Cup.
As far as the current situation is concerned, in fact, if Messi wants to participate, Argentina will certainly give him a place, which does not need to doubt, but it is also necessary to see that the 39-year-old player in modern football is really difficult to provide contributions.
In the 2022 World Cup, Messi's performance is very excellent, scoring 2 goals in the final, scoring 7 goals in the entire tournament, leading Argentina to win the title, in essence, from personal honor to team honor, Messi can already be king.
It is worth mentioning that Messi's former old teammate Suarez will also join Miami International in January next year, Suarez is now also 36 years old, this season he played 51 games for Gremio, scored 23 goals and 17 assists, the state is still good.
Fans can expect to see Messi and Suarez playing together in the MLS next year.
The original Barcelona MSN combination, now have left the five major leagues, Neymar in the Saudi League soon after the injury reimbursement, perhaps next year, Neymar may also join the Miami International.
