JAKARTA - Former Argentina national team player, Sergio Aguero, believes the 2022 World Cup will be the last for his compatriot, Lionel Messi. In fact, according to him, this World Cup is the right time for Messi to "leave" the Argentine national team.
"This could be Lionel Messi's last World Cup, so everyone in this country (Argentina) has high hopes. He is the best player of all time and is a legend in Argentina," Aguero said, quoted by the Manchester Evening News.
"But winning the World Cup would be the perfect way to end his career as an international player."
Currently, Lionel Messi has turned 34 years old. He will be 38 years old at the next World Cup. That means, the Paris Saint-Germain player is considered to still have a chance to play in the 2026 World Cup.
Meanwhile, Aguero also commented on the possibility of Argentina winning the 2022 World Cup. According to him, the opportunity is quite open. This can be seen from the journey of the Tango Team in the qualifying round.
"Argentina are unbeaten in qualifying and only finished behind Brazil, and with Messi in the team anything is possible," said Aguero.
However, Aguero saw England could be a stumbling block. Brazil and France are also rated as strong teams at the 2022 World Cup.
"It will be an interesting tournament and I can't wait to see how it plays out," said the former Barcelona player.
