The 39-year-old, however, said that he is only focused on the ongoing 2026 World Cup at the moment.

Messi has scored five goals in two appearances for Argentina. He scored a hat-trick against Algeria and a brace against Austria.

When asked about playing at the 2030 World Cup, Messi said, as quoted by Fabrizio Romano: “I don’t know.

“The truth is, I am not thinking about that right now.

“It seems a bit far off… but, as I said, I am living one day at a time and focused on the present.”
