  Let Messi confirm the World Cup squad? The head coach of the Argentina national team arrived in Barcelona for a secret meeting

  SAN Paolo showed Messi the 35-man squad of the Argentina team for his review

  The biggest event in the world of football this year is the Russia World Cup. For the Argentina team, which is eager to win the championship, Messi is the hope to lead them to realize their dream. Previously, Messi publicly stated in an interview that this would be his last time to compete in the World Cup. Seizing Messi's last chance to participate in the tournament is something that the Argentina team must do, because it's unknown how many years it will take for the next Messi to emerge, and perhaps there will never be another Messi.

  On April 23 local time, the head coach of the Argentina national team, SAN Paolo, arrived in Barcelona. He visited Messi and the two held a meeting. This meeting was not confidential. Sampaoli was accompanied by several assistants, and Messi also had a few attendants by his side. Some of the details of the meeting were soon learned by the powerful Barcelona media.

  At this meeting, Sampaoli and Messi first talked about football, with the focus on the preparations for the World Cup, Messi's physical health, and the Argentina team's squad list. Messi told Sampaoli that he was "in good physical condition".

  During this meeting, Sampaoli showed Messi the 35-man squad for Argentina's 2018 World Cup and asked for his opinion. A source familiar with the meeting told Mundo Deportivo: "SAN Paolo took out a list with the names of 35 Argentine players on it. This is a draft of the squad for the World Cup." Although the list was already quite detailed, after discussion, the two agreed that there were still a few names left unwritten. However, they didn't talk much about this topic and mostly focused on football."

  After the meeting, when leaving Messi's home, Sampaoli told the waiting reporters, "Messi is in good condition." We are eager for Messi to lead us to win the World Cup. Messi told me that his current condition is much better than when he had a muscle injury a while ago, and he feels well-prepared for this summer."

  One of the many journalists standing guard at Messi's doorstep asked, "Are you going straight back to Argentina next?" Sang Paoli replied, "No." I'm going to meet Aguero right away."

  The "muscle injury" of Messi mentioned by Sampaoli in his speech refers to the fact that Messi missed two warm-up matches of the Argentina team in March this year due to discomfort in his thigh muscle.
