Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernández revealed in an interview that despite Argentina’s World Cup triumph in Qatar, the team cannot dwell on past glories and must look forward.
On the mindset after the World Cup and future goals
“We have already won the World Cup, but everything else is in the past. Now we need to focus on the upcoming challenges.”
“We all know in our hearts that this could be Messi’s last World Cup. But the entire team will take this as motivation – of course, we will do our utmost to defend the honor we won in Qatar. So we will strive to be the best and fight to win the championship again.”
On whether he sees himself as a candidate for Argentina’s future captaincy
“Personally, I do dream of becoming the national team captain, there’s no doubt about it. However, this isn’t something I can decide – it’s ultimately up to the coaching staff. But yes, I truly dream of wearing the captain’s armband for the national team.”
