Lionel Messi: Soon I will retire from international football
.
Inter Miami‘s new American star, Argentine Lionel Messi, confirmed that he does not know when he will retire from international play with the team with which he recently won the 2022 World Cup, however, the player admitted in an interview with Argentine television that this will happen soon because of his age. The world champion said: “By logic and age this will happen soon, I don‘t know when exactly, I simply think about day by day and enjoy everything I live now.” “I think it will happen when it should happen, all that is left for me now that I have achieved everything I have achieved is enjoyment, and as I always say the Lord will say when that moment will come.” Messi will be presented next Sunday at Lockhart Stadium in Florida as a player in the ranks of Inter Miami.
“Al-Barghout” explained: “Most likely he would have retired from international play if he had not been crowned in the World Cup in Qatar, because the situation was very difficult for him and his family.” The captain spoke about what the defeat from Saudi Arabia meant at the start of the 2022 World Cup: “We came after 35 or 36 games without defeat, and we did not know how to deal with this difficult moment.” “We had a lot of players playing World Cup for the first time and that‘s why the Saudi match was difficult, whether you like it or not, anxiety and tension appear because they are anxiety and tension, but our team was strong.”
On his move to Inter Miami, he said: “My family and I are happy with the decision we have taken and take on this new challenge, my mentality and my thinking will not change and I will try as always to give my best
