Lionel Messi has been included in Argentina’s squad for their friendly games in the upcoming international window.

Argentina will play three matches against Bolivia, Burkina Faso and Benin Republic.

Last month, Messi announced his retirement from La Albiceleste after 21 years playing for his country’s national team.

The Inter Miami forward will play his farewell game (last dance) on October 6 in Buenos Aires against Benin Republic, the federation has confirmed.

But it remains to be seen if the 39-year-old will feature in the two games against Bolivia and Burkina Faso before the game against Benin.
