Lionel Messi: Barcelona star hints at end of an era… fans will not like this
The 30-year-old is widely regarded as one of the best footballers to have ever played the game.
He has enjoyed a decorated career to date, winning five Ballon d’Ors as well as dozens of trophies while at Barcelona.
But it is on the international stage where Messi is yet to taste success.
He was part of the Argentina team which won gold at the 2008 Olympics but it is the Copa America and World Cup that has painfully alluded Messi.
Argentina reached the final of both tournaments in 2014 and 2015 respectively but were beaten by Germany and Chile.
