Not even Messi could convince him, the player who would choose USMNT instead of Argentina

Many talented players have various dilemmas when choosing which team to represent when they have more than one nationality. In many cases, this decision is not so complex, because they choose the place of their parents and not where they were born. Other times, it is the other way around and they identify more in the country where they grew up. However, the most recent case is that of an Inter Miami footballer who sees more options in the USMNT than in Argentina and even had minutes in the most recent FIFA International break.

These friendly duels helped the Team USA coach begin to mark the path and choose the players in whom he sees the greatest potential to reach the 2026 World Cup at home. To this end, in addition to the base of World Cup experience that this team already has, new faces were added, among them that of Inter Miami youngster Benjamín Cremaschi, who since Messi's arrival in South Florida, has had great moments.

The midfielder already commented previously that he would like to defend the light blue and white, so Mascherano must express his real intention for him to be part of the process. Furthermore, in July he declared in dialogue with TyC Sports: “I always liked De Paul's football and he is a person who is very close to Leo and looks like he takes care of him. It's how I like to play." However, the United States has an advantage because it has already added a match in which the player has defended the colors of said team.

Will Cremaschi play for Argentina or the United States?

Benjamín Cremaschi made his debut with the United States major in the Americans' 4-0 win over Oman. Thus, the youth player - who is in Javier Mascherano's consideration for the Pre-Olympic - was two games away from being forever shielded by the USA. In this context, the best player in the world can still chat with him to try to convince him to lean towards the Argentine National Team. However, one of the great realities at the moment is that the footballer would have a little more chance of being an immediate starter in the USMNT than in the South American National Team. At least, in this year.
