He announced his retirement while giving an interview with ESPN Argentina, “It’s my last World Cup, surely. I feel good physically, I was able to do a very good pre-season this year, which I couldn’t do last year. It was essential to get to where I am, with a good state of mind and a lot of hope.”
Argentina will be one of the favorites in Qatar WC 2022 under Manager Lionel Scaloni. He is keen to win the WC before his retirement as he has every major trophy other than the World Cup. “There is anxiety, and nerves about the World Cup. We can’t wait for it to start.”
