<p>Claudio Tapia, the president of the Argentine Football Association, believes that Messi may be persuaded to modify his mind about continuing his international career until the next iteration of football’s premier competition.</p>
<p>“He constantly sets higher goals. During a conference of sports leaders in Buenos Aires, Tapia observed, “He never gives up and constantly surprises you. “I have given it considerable consideration. How am I not? He should be there, please. Messi can certainly compete at the 2026 World Cup in his present condition.</p>
<p>When the competition in the United States, Canada, and Mexico is through, Messi, who last year led the Albiceleste to their third World Cup triumph in Qatar, will be 39 years old.</p>
<p>The attacker, who formerly played for Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain, hasn’t exhibited any symptoms of aging. The 36-year-old has scored 11 goals in as many games since joining Inter Miami as a free agent in the middle of July, while also dishing out five assists.</p>
<p>He guided the Florida team to the League C in the Eastern Conference’s 14th spot.</p>
<p>Messi should have the freedom to decide when to terminate his international career, according to Tapia. It all depends on what he wants. He will likely compete in the next World Cup. If he truly wants to, he can accomplish it.</p>
