Lionel Messi has admitted that his main motivation to continue his career right now is his eldest son Thiago:
"My son often tells me, 'Dad, wait a few more years, I want to play with you in the Argentina national team'."
Is this realistic?

According to Medianews.az, Thiago Messi is currently 13 years old (born in November 2012). He is following in his father's footsteps: he wears the number 10 jersey at Inter Miami's U-14 academy and has already won several of his first state-level cups.
For his dream to come true, Leo must stay in football at least until he is 41 or 42 years old (Thiago will be 16 or 17). Considering the phenomenal form of father Messi, such a family debut cannot be ruled out.//Lent.az
