Messi is on the list of players being considered, but it is improbable that he would travel to the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.
According to reports in the local press, the Argentine Football Federation has verified that two players who will compete in the 2024 Olympic men’s soccer match in Paris, France, are unquestionably older than 23. These players are Nicolas Otamendi and Julian Alvarez.
Lionel Messi is predicted to be the last choice, although some South American publications speculate that goalie Emiliano Martinez may have been the last player selected.
Therefore, Messi’s chances of going to the Olympics in Paris are slim. Attending the 2024 Olympics in Paris in order to win more gold is not the main objective for this superstar, who already won a gold medal in the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
Messi, a 37-year-old superstar, will have fitness issues if he goes on to the July Olympics in Paris because he will also be attending the Copa America in June. Argentina is in Group B with the teams of Morocco, Iraq, and Ukraine for men’s soccer at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.
The gold medal is the aim of the Argentine Olympics. Teams that are competing in the Olympics will provide the organizers with a roster of up to 18 players, with no more than three of those players being older than 23. The competition this year is held in seven stadiums in France from July 24 to August 9.
