Everton defender wants Lionel Messi to change mind about international retirement
Everton defender Ramiro Funes Mori wants Lionel Messi to reconsider his international retirement.
Messi quit playing for Argentina after suffering heartache in the final of the Copa America last month.
International team-mate Funes Mori also played in the game against Chile as La Albiceleste lost on penalties.
And the 25-year-old hopes Messi will perform a u-turn on his decision to end his time with the national team.
Mori said: “It was said at a sad moment, not just for Messi, but for all of us.
Everton comment: Does Ramiro Funes Mori have a long term future with the Blues?
“Maybe he said it in a moment when he was mad but hopefully for football, for the people and for everything, we need these kind of players because they are different.”
Funes Mori returned to Finch Farm on Monday to begin pre-season training with Everton.
The club’s most expensive ever defender turned down the chance to represent Argentina at the Olympic games in order to kick-start his summer with the Blues.
