Thomas Müller has assessed Lionel Messi's prospects for the 2026 World Cup. Sport24.az reports that the German footballer made a statement to Yahoo Sports about this:
"It would be very interesting for him to play in the World Cup. This could significantly change the balance of power. I can't say whether this will affect Argentina's game positively or negatively.
I played against Messi in the MLS final, and he was very excited when he received the ball. He joined the attack by choosing the right position. But I'm not sure if his current style of play will be useful in a prestigious tournament. In any case, Argentina is among my favorites."
It should be noted that the leader of the Argentine national team has not yet confirmed his participation in the World Cup. The national team, captained by 38-year-old Messi, won the tournament in 2022.
