In a recent interview, Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni shared that Messi wants to be part of the 2026 World Cup final that will be held in Mexico, the United States, and Canada.
Of course, a lot can happen between now and then. Time is the best answer to this.
Lionel Messi’s desire to contribute to the Argentina national team is undeniable, but this depends a lot on his physical condition and future form.
Coach Scaloni and the coaching staff are closely following the situation of the 37-year-old star, because everyone wants to see this star take to the field in what could be the last World Cup of his career. If Messi participates in the 2026 World Cup, he could become a player who has participated in 6 World Cup finals.
