Reports have revealed that Argentine star Lionel Messi, captain of the American team Inter Miami, is considering a new loan experience in the upcoming period to maintain his readiness to participate with his national team in the 2026 World Cup.

Messi is currently participating in the American league with Inter Miami and recently appeared in the Club World Cup, before being eliminated in the Round of 16 after losing to Paris Saint-Germain with a score of 4-0.

According to what was mentioned by "ESPN Argentina", Messi is studying the option of moving to a more competitive league next season, as a loan, in preparation for the upcoming international duties with the Argentine national team.

Messi's current contract with Inter Miami ends in December 2025, but the American club is seeking to extend his contract thereafter. Reports indicate that any future agreement may include a clause allowing the Argentine star to undergo a short loan period outside the United States, focusing on his mission to lead the Argentine national team in defending the World Cup title he won in Qatar in 2022.
