He has just arrived at PSG and Messi already receives the worst news about his Argentine friend
He is 34 years old, was key in the World Cup and would analyze his continuity for the next South American Qualifiers
Finally, Lionel Messi managed to settle the only account he had pending and won the World Cup in Qatar, being the main figure in the team led by Lionel Scaloni. The 'Flea' was backed by great figures who appeared at key moments. One of them is not sure of his continuity in the Albiceleste, despite the fact that he is one of the most experienced on the squad.
It is about Nicolás Otamendi. The central defender from Benfica stood out in the World Cup in Qatar. He was a wall in the tournament held in the Middle East and thrilled everyone with his grit and precision. Despite not being very tall, compared to European players, he was unbeatable in the air and enjoyed lifting the coveted Cup.

However, at 34 years old, he has not yet ensured his continuity in the current world champion. The journalist Gastón Edul maintained that Otamendi will be present at the friendly that the Selection will have in March, where the AFA is preparing a great tribute party to the managers of the third title for the country. After this, the future of the defender in Argentina is not certain.
Otamendi would leave the central zone in good hands:
Faced with a possible resignation from the National Team, after having won the World Cup in Qatar, the team led by Scaloni would be protected for several more years with players of the stature of Cristian Romero and Lisandro Martínez. Both were also part of the title in the Middle East and are shaping up to be behind for at least the next two World Cups.
