BUENOS AIRES: Argentina Boss Lionel Scaloni stated that he is unconcerned with Lionel Messi's plays next season, adding that his only concern is whether the 35-year-old is happy
After being spotted in Riyadh with his family last week, Messi, whose contract with Paris Saint-Germain expires on June 30, has been linked to a move to Saudi Arabia, a report read.
The Argentina captain was subsequently suspended by Paris Saint-Germain for making the trip without the club's knowledge and missing a training session. "Let him go to where he will feel comfortable with his teammates and the club's fans," Scaloni was quoted as saying by Argentina's media.
As long as he is pleased when he joins us, which is important because we need him to be happy, the situation has no bearing on us as a national team. After apologising to his teammates, Messi's suspension was reduced, and the striker started practising again in the French city on Monday.
The destiny of his son will be decided after the conclusion of the current European season, according to his father and agent, Jorge Messi, who has rejected any agreement with another team.
