Lionel Messiis reportedly undergoing muscle rejuvenation for the 2026 World Cup.

Messi could have one more World Cup tournament in him. According to Leo Paradizo, Messi has his mind set on playing at the 2026 World Cup in the United States and is undergoing muscle rejuvenation.

The reigning World Cup winner would be 38 when the 2026 World Cup begins and it would be his sixth World Cup.

Lionel Messi has responded to Kylian Mbappe’s comments about the Euro’s being more difficult than the World Cup.

Messi played alongside Kylian Mbappe at PSG and against him in the 2022 World Cup final. Mbappe stated last week that the Euro’s were more difficult than the World Cup itself. Speaking in an interview with ESPN Argentina, here is what Messi had to say:

“Mbappe saying that the Euro’s are more difficult than the World Cup? He also said that the South American teams didn’t have the competition of the Europeans. Everyone values what they play.

“The Euro Cup is very important but it leaves out Argentina, three time world champion. Brazil, five time world champion. Uruguay, two time world champions.

“There are many World champions left out to say that the Euro Cup is the most difficult, right?

“In the World Cup, the best teams are there, all the World champions are generally there. That’s why everyone wants to be World champion.”
