Argentina captain, Lionel Messi, has confirmed that Qatar 2022 will “surely” be his last World Cup.
Messi will turn 39 during the 2026 World Cup, which will be hosted by Canada, the United States of America and Mexico.
He currently holds the Argentine records for caps (164) as well as goals (90).
The Paris Saint-Germain superstar has now said this year’s tournament will be his fifth and final chance to win the tournament for the first time since 1986.
Messi told Latin American streaming service Star+ , per Argentine outlet TN: “If it is my last World Cup? Yes, surely yes, surely yes.
“I feel good physically. I can have a very good pre-season this year that I hadn’t done the year before because of how everything went, I started training late, playing without rhythm, with the tournament already started, then I went to the national team, when I came back I had an injury and I never finished starting.”
