Messi 43 years old can still play in the World Cup

Although Lionel Messi is regarded as a living legend of football, his sporting form remains at a high level. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

Former England national team striker Gabby Agbonlahor continues to share his thoughts. According to him, the Argentine star is not only continuing to play at the highest level, but he could also appear on the pitch at the next World Cup even after turning 43.

This was reported by Goal.com. Agbonlahor paused during an interview on talkSPORT to discuss Messi's phenomenal ability.

He said: if Messi were to move to the English Premier League, he would be capable of taking any team to championship level. In particular, he illustrated this idea using his former club, Aston Villa, as an example.

According to Agbonlahor, if Lionel Messi joined the squad, the team could even win the Champions League. Speaking about the Premier League and European competitions, Agbonlahor stated with confidence: "If Aston Villa added Messi to their side, the team would win the English Premier League and the Champions League.

I have no doubt about that." The expert's views come after Messi's impressive start in a major tournament in North America. Recall that Lionel Messi became the oldest player in World Cup history to score a hat-trick and increased his goal tally in the tournament to 18, solidifying his status as an absolute record holder.

Although Lionel Messi is approaching his 39th birthday, his movements on the pitch and ability to control the game show no signs of decline. According to Agbonlahor, while many may view this tournament as Messi's last major appearance, in fact, he could still participate in the 2030 World Cup.

Recalling his memories from the World Cup in Qatar, Agbonlahor said that every move Messi makes on the pitch feels like an unforgettable 90-minute concert for fans. The boundless love of Argentine fans for their idol and Messi's scoring in six consecutive matches prove that he remains one of the best players in the world.

Today, Lionel Messi remains not only a key figure for his club but also for his national team. Predictions that he will still be active on the pitch at the age of 43 have sparked lively debates among football enthusiasts.

If this comes to pass, Messi will further cement his name as one of the players with the longest and most successful career in football history.
