Quoting the coach’s remarks on X, journalist Fabrizio Romano reported on Friday: “I’ll do everything possible for Messi to be there at the World Cup.

Messi, currently starring for Inter Miami, has not confirmed whether he will participate in the next World Cup, following Argentina’s triumph at the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
