Messi
Inter Miami and Argentina’s 38-year-old football star, Lionel Messi, discussed his thoughts on the 2026 FIFA World Cup in a recent interview with ESPN. He expressed his hope to help Argentina defend its title but clarified that his decision to play would depend on his fitness, stating he is taking it day by day.
He added that the tournament, set to be held in North America, feels particularly special and closer to him now that he is based in the United States. Messi also confirmed that he plans to be there to watch the games in person, even if he is not part of the playing squad.
His presence is considered an inspiration for a new generation of players. Currently, his immediate focus is on leading Inter Miami in the MLS Cup final against the Vancouver Whitecaps this Saturday. He has already set records in the playoffs with six goals and seven assists. This excitement at both club and international levels shows that Messi’s influence on the sport extends far beyond continents.
Many are now waiting to find out the result of Messi’s MLS Cup final.
