2026 World Cup: It seems very logical – Argentina coach, Scaloni speaks on Messi’s decision

Lionel Scaloni, the head coach of Argentina, has stated that he respects Lionel Messi’s decision to skip the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

In 2026, the World Cup will be held in the USA, Canada, and Mexico. But Messi has already declared that he will not be competing in the event. This follows the seven-time winner of the Ballon d’Or lifting the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Scaloni was asked to comment on Messi’s choice during a press conference on Wednesday.

He said, via Mundoalbiceleste,

“I think it’s very prudent coming from someone who doesn’t sell smoke and does not lie. The reality is that he is going to see and based on how he finds himself, we are going to decide and that is the logical thing to do.

“There is still a lot to do that it makes no sense to think beyond that.

“He is very blunt, he says that and it seems very logical to me. As time goes by, we will see if he is feeling well and if he is willing, which is the important thing. He knows how to play football today and in ten years, that’s obvious.”
