How many years of career do you have left?

Leo Messi was given the sixth Golden Ball of his career, and part of his speech was this: “I hope I have several years left, although I am aware of how old I am and now feels more because the withdrawal time is approaching. It is difficult, although I still have several years left, at the moment it seems that time flies and everything happens very fast. I hope to continue enjoying football, my family, the rivals and the life I have to live. ” The footballer himself spoke of his own mouth of the future and more than one trembled. But the truth is that time passes for everyone. Messi debuted with Barça's first team in 2004 and has been in the elite for fifteen seasons. He is 32 years old and the 33 will arrive next June, hence it seems logical to think that his end as a player approaching.

A date that can be key is 2022. That year, between the end of November and December, the Qatar World Cup is played and Leo could give himself another opportunity in which until now he has been his great disappointment as a professional: winning a great title with Argentina. In that World Cup, Messi will be 35 years old, and in June, at the end of the season, 36. With Barcelona he is now renewing season by season, which has also raised some controversy because of the possibility that that gives him to leave for free. The "10" also talked about it. "People know that there are no problems with that issue. What I feel for this club goes beyond any signature, any contract or any role. It's one more thing about how I feel and I want to be fine while I'm at Barça. ”He has, therefore, some seasons to continue adding titles and goals, especially to try to find the fifth Champions that resists him.
