Alejandro Garnacho, the Manchester United forward, has shared his ambition to play alongside Lionel Messi for the Argentina national team in the forthcoming World Cup. Garnacho, who has had the unique opportunity to play with both Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, cherishes the experience with the Argentine legend.

During the World Cup qualifiers, where Argentina leads the South American standings by five points over Uruguay, Garnacho expressed his desire to be a key player in defending their World Cup title. He hopes that Messi, who will be 38 at the start of the tournament, remains part of the squad.

Speaking to FIFA's official website, Garnacho stated, 'Playing for Argentina alongside Messi is a dream. I must continue on my path and strive to improve. Being with the team during the Copa América was incredible, even though I didn't play much. Winning the Copa was an unbelievable moment. I hope to be ready for the next World Cup, and we will fight to win it again.'
