Argentina may have America to thank for Lionel Messi’s latest World Cup heroics

ATLANTA: (Jun 21) Lionel Messi’s move to America will look like a masterstroke if he leads Argentina to back-to-back World Cup titles.

His decision to join Inter Miami in 2023 has already been good for all parties, raising the profile of soccer in the United States, delivering titles for his club and writing a new chapter in his storied career.

But Argentina could be the biggest winner of all, with Messi arriving at what might be his last World Cup with his powers still at stratospheric levels aged 38.
