After winning the Qatar World Cup, many thought that would be Lionel Messi's last World Cup. But defying age, he once again led Argentina to the World Cup final. Although he could not win the title, he impressed the football world once again with his performance throughout the tournament.

If the 2030 World Cup takes place, Messi will be 43 years old. The chances of him taking the field at that age are very low. However, fans hope that even if they don't see the father, they might see his eldest son Thiago Messi in the national team.

Currently 13 years old, Thiago will turn 18 by the time of the 2030 World Cup. If he improves consistently and quickly establishes himself in professional football, the possibility of him getting a chance in the Argentine national team cannot be ruled out.

Thiago is currently training at the youth academy of Major League Soccer (MLS) club Inter Miami. He has already won a title with the club's under-14 team. Argentine fans are keeping an eye on his performance.

Although he has the opportunity to play for Spain by birth, Thiago has already stated that his dream is to take the field wearing the Argentine jersey. He wants to represent the national team by following in his father's footsteps.

Messi's other two children, Mateo and Ciro, also play football. However, according to analysts, being the successor of a legend like Lionel Messi is not easy. Therefore, the most positive decision would be to give Thiago the opportunity for natural development without putting excessive pressure of expectations on him.

The 2030 World Cup is still a few years away. But Argentine football fans have already started counting down the days, waiting for a potential new chapter in the future.
