Madrid (dpa) – The Argentine football-Superstar Lionel Messi does not rule out participating in the 2026 World Cup. “I’m trying not to be too quick. I aim to enjoy each day. When the time comes, we will see. I don’t like to rush things. “I hope I can keep playing at this level because that makes me happy,” Messi told Spanish newspaper Marca.
However, he also emphasized that he was more concerned about staying in top shape than worrying about future milestones. “I’m more focused now on feeling comfortable, being happy and playing well. Whether I make it to the 2026 World Cup or not … we’ll see when the time comes,” he said.
On 18 December 2022, Messi was crowned world champion by the Argentine national team in the final against France in Qatar. For Messi, who had achieved everything in club football, this was the highlight of his career. Before the tournament, Messi had said that the Qatar finals would be his last. The next men’s World Cup will be held in 2026 in the USA, Canada and Mexico.
