Lionel Scaloni, head coach of the Argentina national team, gave a candid response to questions about the possible conclusion of Lionel Messi's career. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
According to the experienced specialist, the Argentine star is capable of maintaining the highest level in football for as long as he wishes. Scaloni highly praised Messi's current physical and mental condition, emphasizing that it is difficult to imagine the level of explosive power he possessed in his youth.
As reported by Mundo Deportivo, the coach spoke about Messi's future, expressing confidence that his talent does not fade with age. According to Scaloni, if the player does not decide to stop on his own, he will remain the best on the field.
Of course, maintaining such a level at the age of thirty-five may seem impossible, but Messi still possesses desire and passion, and he refuses to relinquish his status as one of the strongest players in the world. Scaloni noted that Messi's influence on modern football remains very high.
Moreover, the coach recalled Messi's younger years, especially his most brilliant period at Barcelona. Scaloni mentioned in his interview that he spoke about the player's condition at the age of twenty-three or twenty-four, saying that imagining the speed and skill level from that time is astonishing.
These remarks indicate that Messi has not lost his professionalism over the years and continues to be a driving force for the team. Currently, Lionel Messi is participating in his sixth World Cup.
In this influential tournament, he is operating from the right flank, once again proving how dangerous an attacker he is. According to statistical data, he has secured a firm place among the footballers who have scored the most goals in World Cup history.
From Scaloni's words, it is clear that the Argentina national team's coaching staff considers Messi to be the team's cornerstone. Now, the whole world wonders just how many more years the legendary attacker will continue to delight fans with his performances.
