Ronaldo Nazario believes Messi can still lead Argentina at 2026 World Cup

Brazilian football legend Ronaldo Nazario has expressed his confidence in Lionel Messi’s ability to lead Argentina’s national team at the 2026 World Cup.

This assessment comes after watching La Pulga’s performance with Inter Miami at the 2025 Club World Cup — the 38-year-old player continues to demonstrate high-quality gameplay.

Argentina has already secured their ticket to next year’s tournament — the team that became champions in Qatar after defeating France in a dramatic final match.

“I have watched Leo in these Club World Cup matches, and he still has a lot to offer,” Ronaldo told DSports.
