Before the tournament, Messi declared that the 2022 World Cup would be his last. But manager Lionel Scaloni has left the door open for him.
He said: “We need to save him a spot for the [next] World Cup.
“If he wants to keep playing, he will be with us. He is more than entitled to decide if he wants to keep playing and what he wants to do with his career.”
