Lionel Messi announces farewell to the Argentine national team

Lionel Messi, 39 years old, announced his retirement from the Argentine national team through social media, saying it is a decision that hurts his soul, but that he understands it is the right time. The captain of the Albiceleste, who made his debut in 2005 and said goodbye in July 2026 after the World Cup final lost to Spain, holds the record for most appearances (207), goals (125) and assists (66) for the Argentine national team. Over 20 years, Messi won the 2022 World Cup, two Copa América titles (2021 and 2024) and the Finalissima, but also experienced great disappointments in finals lost before 2021. The player thanked the fans, family and teammates, stating that he leaves the national team with "peace and pride" and that he will continue to support Argentina "from outside".
