Lisandro Martinez admits that the opportunity to play alongside Lionel Messi gives him “goosebumps”, with Argentina chasing down World Cup glory.
The Albiceleste continue to look to their talismanic captain for inspiration in that quest, with Messi having delivered so far in a Qatar 2022 campaign that has taken them to the quarter-final stage. Martinez has not figured as prominently in Lionel Scaloni’s plans, but the Manchester United defender is looking to make the most of any opportunity he gets to grace the same field as a seven-time Ballon d’Or winner.
Martinez has told AD of working with an all-time great: “To see Lionel Messi giving everything on the pitch.. I get goosebumps. As a team-mate you give everything for him. He is the greatest of them all. To have him as my team-mate makes me extremely proud.”
