Lionel Messi is considering changing clubs ahead of the 2026 World Cup, reports Argentine journalist Esteban Edul.
According to the source, the 38-year-old forward may leave Inter Miami six months before the tournament to join a more competitive league. The goal is to get into peak form for representing Argentina.
The World Cup will take place in the summer of 2026 in the USA, Canada, and Mexico. Argentina is the reigning champion — in the 2022 World Cup final in Qatar, Lionel Scaloni’s team defeated France in a penalty shootout. Messi scored twice and was named the best player of the tournament.
There is no official confirmation of a potential transfer yet.
