Messi’s presence in the Argentina national team will certainly be a special attraction.

Nonetheless, it will be interesting to see if the 35-year-old will define his future ahead of the international friendlies.

As is well known the Paris Saint-Germain player will become a free agent as his free agent contract expires on June 30.

It was widely reported that Barcelona wanted to pull him back and there was also interest from a number of clubs outside Europe.
