Thiago Messi has already decided which national team he will play for.
In an interview, he revealed this information, surprising everyone. He is still very young, only 11 years old, so there are still many years before he can be called up to a senior national team.
However, he has made some slightly shocking statements.
Thiago was born in Spain in 2012, precisely in Barcelona, where he lived most of his life. Now he is in Miami, playing for the Inter-Miami Academy. His first steps in football are quite promising and he led his team to win their first title.
Because of this, he was interviewed, where he already speaks better publicly than his father the GOAT, despite being only 11 years old. The interviewer was Spanish and asked him to play for the Spanish national team, to which Thiago responded,
…. 🗣️ “No, I want to play for Argentina🇦🇷 like my father. I don’t think they can convince me to play for Spain. I know I was born in Barcelona, but I want to play for Argentina”…
By the way, Thiago Messi also stated that he wants to play with Lamine Yamal at Barcelona in the future. It’s worth noting that they are four years and eight months apart.
