I don't know, the truth is I've been asked that question a lot, especially in Argentina. I hope to finish this year strongly, have a good preseason, which I missed last year due to all the travel we had. From there, I'll see how I feel.

Messi has been playing for Inter Miami since 2023, with a contract that runs until 2025. Before joining the Miami club, the Argentinian forward played for French team PSG and Spanish side Barcelona. In 2022, he won the World Cup held in Qatar, leading the Argentina national team to a victory over France in the final. He has also won the Copa America twice (in 2021 and 2024) and was a champion in the Finalissima in 2022.

Previously, Messi discussed whether he plans to become a coach after his professional playing career ends. He also mentioned that he has altered his playing style since moving to the American club.
