Lionel Messi may have already played his final match for Argentina, according to comments from teammate Leandro Paredes. The update adds fresh uncertainty to the long-running discussion about Messi’s future with the national team.
Speculation around Messi’s international career has continued as fans and media look for signs about whether he plans to keep playing for Argentina. Paredes’ remarks suggest that a decision could already have been made, even if no formal announcement has been confirmed.
If Messi has chosen to step away from international soccer, it would mark the end of one of the sport’s most closely followed national-team careers. Any suggestion that his last Argentina appearance may already have happened is likely to draw major attention because of his importance to the team and to the global game.
For now, the situation remains unclear, with Paredes’ comments fueling debate rather than settling it. Until Messi addresses the matter directly, questions over his Argentina future are expected to continue.
