Argentina reveal who will wear the number 10 shirt with Messi missing | OneFootball

For the final date of the South American Qualifiers, the Argentine National Team will visit Ecuador this Tuesday and will want to end their participation in the best possible way. But of course, they will do so with several significant absences, and now it has been revealed who will wear the number 10 jersey in the absence of Lionel Messi.

Last Thursday at the Monumental stadium, Lionel Messi had a very special moment playing his last official match with the Argentine National Team in the country. Whereas for the match against Ecuador, Lionel Scaloni decided to let him rest and not travel to Guayaquil.

In this context, the coach will have to define the starting eleven that will take to the field and also other matters. Such as for example the bearer of the number 10. The truth is that the chosen one is finally Thiago Almada.

Without a doubt, it will be a great moment for the footballer who emerged from Vélez and will surely be a starter against Ecuador. But of course, he will seek to continue with his outstanding performances and start to consolidate himself within the list of players who will compete in the 2026 World Cup.
