Messi desperate to win the World Cup with Argentina
Lionel Messi is so desperate to win the World Cup with Argentina that he would trade success with Barcelona to triumph in Russia this summer.
Titles with Barca have not been so hard to come by -- Messi has won 32 trophies since making his first-team debut, including a domestic double this season. However, he says he would be willing to forgo another title with the Catalan club if it meant he could finally get his hands on the World Cup trophy. “Winning the World Cup is a huge personal challenge for me, for the group [of players Argentina have] and for the country, who have the same dreams as us,” he told El Trece. “It’s a nice responsibility to represent a whole country at a World Cup. “I would swap a title with Barcelona for one with the national team. While I want to win things again with my club, I want to win something with the national team.”
