Argentine Lionel Messi, the star of Paris Saint -Germain, revealed the candidate teams to win the World Cup, which will start a few days later in Qatar.
The 2022 World Cup is likely to be the last championship in which Messi participates with the Tango team, as he stated before, as he will play with Argentina in the third group with Saudi Arabia, Mexico and Poland.
“We are very enthusiastic, we have a very good group, but we are thinking about going slowly, we know that the World Cup groups are not easy,” Messi said in comments on the official website of the South American Football Association.
When the Argentine legend was asked about the teams he sees as potential champions of the World Cup, the Paris Saint -Germain star included a group of teams but refused to include the Copa America 2021 champion.
He said: “The candidates are always identical, there are some surprises, but in general, the big difference is the candidate. ”
He added: “I see that Brazil, France, and England are candidates to win the championship and they are just higher than the rest of the other teams, but the World Cup is a very difficult and complex championship and anything can happen.
”
The Argentine national team crowned two versions of the World Cup in 1978 and 1986, while Lionel Messi hopes to win the first title in its history before ending his international career..
