Lionel Messi Wants To Play In 2024 Copa America

By IANS News September 22, 2023 • 12:50 PM View: 1131

Major League Soccer: Argentina captain Lionel Messi has expressed a desire to extend his international career at least until next year's Copa America in the United States.

The 36-year-old has until now remained non-committal about his plans to continue playing for the Albiceleste and admitted in June that he was "almost at the end of his career", reports Xinhua.

Despite wanting to play on in the short term, the Inter Miami forward said the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico remained a distant prospect.
