Lionel Messi, the famous football player and World Cup champion, has shared some insights about his plans after retiring. In a recent interview, the 37-year-old star from Inter Miami suggested that coaching may not be in his future, saying, “I don’t think I want to be a coach after I retire.”
Despite a remarkable career filled with many records and a strong love for the game, Messi appears uncertain about what he will do after he stops playing.
His time with Inter Miami has been both exciting and tough, as injuries have caused him to miss parts of the season. Still, he has played a significant role in helping his team improve in MLS.
With his contract lasting until 2025, fans are curious about whether he will stay with the team, look for new opportunities, or retire.
When asked about his current focus, Messi stressed that he enjoys the present. “The only thing that I’m thinking about is playing, training, and enjoying myself,” he said.
He made it clear that he appreciates each day and does not want to worry about the future.
With the 2026 World Cup approaching, Messi is uncertain about whether he will participate. “The truth is that I don’t know,” he confessed.
He highlighted the importance of having a good current season and the need for a proper preseason, which he missed because of travel. For now, Messi is taking it “day by day.”
As Inter Miami prepares for a key match against Atlanta United on November 2, fans are eagerly watching, aware that Messi’s future plans remain unclear.
