The 2026 FIFA World Cup will be jointly hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico. Argentina captain Lionel Messi, the reigning world champions, had previously said that the World Cup in Qatar would be his last. But every Argentina-Messi fan believes that Messi will play in the 2026 World Cup.
But now Argentina legend Lionel Messi is saying that he does not intend to play in the 2026 World Cup. Messi’s response was to the Chinese outlet Titan Sports.
“As I said earlier, I have played my last World Cup and I don’t know what will happen in the future. But now I don’t intend to participate in the World Cup,’ said Lionel Messi.
Before the Qatar World Cup, Messi had said that this would be his last World Cup. Then there were reports that the player will retire after the World Cup. But because Argentina became champions in the World Cup, there were rumors that the player will play in the next World Cup as well.
Messi put on a spectacular performance with seven goals and three assists in the Qatar World Cup. Also, Messi won the Golden Ball award for the best player in the World Cup from the soil of Qatar.
Meanwhile, Lionel Messi and his team are currently in China for the friendly match against Australia on June 15.
