Gerardo Martino says that he would not be surprised if Lionel Messi is the centre of attraction when his Argentina team takes on United States.

Argentina is set to trade tackles with the rest of the teams playing at the Copa America Centenario 2016, after the team’s officials dismissed reports that the team would withdraw for the tournament.

The national team coach of the Argentine squad wants Everton star, Ramiro Funes Mori to play for La Albiceleste in the upcoming tournaments.

Coach Gerardo Martino says he wants the player for play during the Summer Olympics starting on August 3, ten days before the official kick-off of the English Premier League.

Argentina’s World Cup qualification hopes remained alive after La Albiceleste defeated their South American counterpart, Chile on Thursday by two goals to one.

The victory over their South American bitter rivals was the much needed boost they argentine team longed for. They now have eight points from five matches. They are one point ahead of current Copa America champions, Chile.

Argentina manager Gerardo Martino has confirmed that Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi will not be part of the team that takes part in the Olympics.

Argentina’s winless run in the World Cup qualifiers continued after they could only secure a 1-1 draw against archrivals Brazil.

West Ham provided a route into European football for Argentine striker Carlos Tevez, who is seen as a legend by many back in his home country.

The possibility of Brazil and Argentina meeting each other in the Copa America before the final itself has raised a lot of expectations and Chelsea midfielder Willian says that it is truly a mouthwatering prospect.

Argentina reached the finals of the 2014 World Cup before eventually being knocked out of the international competition after losing against Germany.

Gerardo Martino’s time at Barcelona was seen as an incredible failure after the club’s failure to win any major trophy for the first time in more than five years.
