Lionel Messi could play in the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico – according to his Argentina coach, Lionel Scaloni.
Messi went into the 2022 competition in Qatar referring to it as his last World Cup and if it is, he signed off in the best possible way by winning the one trophy to have evaded him in his sensational career – in the most dramatic final in history.
But in the aftermath of the victory, there are already gentle signs that Messi could be extending his stay on the international arena and if Scaloni has his way, that could see Messi playing at a World Cup in North America.
