Leandro Paredes, an Argentine soccer player, is feeling uncertain about his future with the national team. This is because Lionel Messi, a legendary player, has announced his retirement from international football, and Paredes himself has been suspended for 10 matches due to his involvement in a fight after Argentina lost the World Cup final to Spain. Paredes mentioned that these two events make it hard for him to continue playing for the national team as he did before. He received the suspension after pushing another player during the post-match chaos, which also led to legal troubles and fines for him and a teammate. He hasn't spoken to the national team coach, Lionel Scaloni, about his future yet but plans to do so soon. Paredes acknowledged that Messi's departure will be a significant loss for the team, praising him for his incredible achievements and the inspiration he provided to others. Although the players had discussed the possibility of Messi retiring, they still weren't ready for the reality of it.
