A few days after completing six months of the last international conquest, Leo delivered a surprising confession. “I really enjoyed the World Cup because I knew it could be the last and to be honest, I think if we hadn’t been world champions I wouldn’t be in the National Team anymore“, said.

“If it wasn’t like that, at least I had to try. It couldn’t be that I had won everything at the club and individual level and if I hadn’t done it with the National Team it was as if I had been missing something”, sure.

Messi is aware of the current situation of the team and recognizes that being a champion he cannot leave the National Team and that he must be in charge of enjoying every moment.

Faced with an imminent participation in the 2026 championship, the captain of the national team said: “I think what I said is normal due to age and time. It’s difficult for it to happen, but well, as I just said, I enjoy the moment, the day to day, being here. Now come playoff matches. It is very far to think about the next World Cup when we just finished one,” closed.
