Lionel Messi answered the question whether he will play at the next World Cup.
– Give us hope that you will play at the Copa América, and at the 2026 World Cup…
– I do not know. I have always said that I think it will be very difficult to go there due to age. I love playing football, I like what I’m doing. And I am going to play football while I am having fun. But it seems that the next World Cup is still far away.
– Scaloni keeps the number 10 jersey for you. After the game against Croatia, you said that the match against France would be your last at the World Cup. Will you take part in 2026?
–I do not want to be ahead of events. But I will say again: it seems to me that it will be very difficult to go there due to age. But it depends on my career.
I will be 36 years old soon. I will decide what to do next. It all depends on many things,” Messi said.
