A message: Changes to Mundo Albiceleste, reduced ads, new design

Hello everyone,

Since the start of the new year, we have been experimenting with different ads and locations across the Mundo Albiceleste website. And if we are being completely honest, it was time for a permanent change.

We have also been hearing and reading all of your feedbacks and are happy to announce what we believe are significant changes. The number of ads on the website have been reduced (we believe significantly) and ultimately, while the ads do help in keeping up with the maintenance of the website, we still want every one to enjoy viewing and reading the content.

Mundo Albiceleste was built by Argentina fans and for Argentina fans, which is why we believe that should remain the priority and will remain the priority.

Should you have any comments or suggestions, please, do let us know in the comments below or email us at mundoalbiceleste10@gmail.com. Our aim is to continue to improve and to provide more content (which we will continue to be doing and will be introducing new sections throughout the year) than we ever have before. And to aim for quality over quantity.

As always, your feedback is strongly appreciated. Mundo Albiceleste has been around since 2006 and we would not be where we are without the Mundo Albiceleste family.

Thank you,

Alejandro Garnacho speaks on why he chose Argentina over Spain, Lionel Messi

Alejandro Garnacho has spoken about why he chose to represent Argentina over Spain and playing with Lionel Messi.

Garnacho was born in Spain to an Argentine mother and represented the Spanish national team at youth level. Garnacho would go on to represent the Argentina national team and won the 2024 Copa America. Speaking with ESPN, here is what Garnacho had to say when asked about why he chose to play for Argentina and not Spain:

“Why I chose to play for Argentina? I am born in Spain but my mother is Argentine. When she was nine years old, the entire family moved to Spain. My grandfather worked in Spain and they stayed there. After that, my mother met my father.

“The reason why is because they gave me confidence from the start, that I was going to be important in the future. Messi is also a big part of that, having the chance of playing with him is something you can’t say no to so easily.

“I know I will do big things for them, it is only a matter of time.”

The 21 year old also spoke about Lionel Messi:

“He is a normal person, if you’re eating with the rest of the players, he seems just like anyone else, very humble. Ans when you watch him train, you see his quality… But it’s Messi!

“I remember the first time I was with him, the first training camp, eating every day, training, sleeping… One week with him, it was a dream. I asked him for a picture and everything.”

“We explained to the player that even if he did nothing wrong, he should not have said that. He is still young, he still has some things to learn.
