Sergio "Kun" Agüero once again commented on the current situation of the Argentina National Team and shared his analysis of the process led by Lionel Scaloni, the future of Lionel Messi, and the new stars who are beginning to gain prominence in the world champion team.
In an interview with Stake, Kun was asked about the possibility of Messi playing in the 2026 World Cup, and Agüero was clear: "I think everyone wants Leo to play forever. But it will be up to him to make the decision."

Meanwhile, the former striker highlighted the importance of maintaining the core of the group that conquered Qatar 2022, despite the departure of key figures such as Ángel Di María. "The foundations remain the same. That is very important, although some key players have left," he noted.
Agüero also emphasized the role of the Argentine coach in the team's development: "One of Scaloni's greatest achievements is that he managed to guide a natural renewal of the squad. He gave opportunities to young players with a lot of talent to shine and knew how to set the pace for their growth. I think that allows the team to maintain a good rhythm," he explained, citing the cases of Franco Mastantuono and Nico Paz.

The former Manchester City player also highlighted the collective strength of the Albiceleste over individual names: "If there is something that characterizes Argentina, it is teamwork. Obviously, if Leo is there, he is the main attraction. In addition to him, Argentina has many brilliant players who are always up to the task: Enzo Fernández, Mac Allister, Julián Álvarez, Lautaro Martínez. Each one makes a unique contribution and, in addition, brings great quality. But if there is something to highlight, it is teamwork."
Finally, Kun especially praised la Araña, one of the great stars of the Scaloneta: "What Julián has achieved is astonishing. A player with the ability to move all over the field, he demonstrates an enormous level of sacrifice and talent. The team (Atlético de Madrid) should enjoy having him on their side, and the fans as well. I wouldn't speculate about future transfers; I think this is the time to enjoy his achievements with Atlético," he concluded.
