Argentina has extended an invitation to Lionel Messi for a farewell appearance in a friendly match scheduled for October. This comes after Messi announced his retirement from international football at the end of August. Claudio Tapia, president of the Argentine Football Association (AFA), confirmed the invitation, stating it's to give "the best player in the world" a well-deserved send-off at home. National coach Lionel Scaloni also invited the legendary number 10 for one last opportunity to bid farewell to the Argentine fans. Argentina is set to play three friendly matches against Bolivia, Burkina Faso, and Benin during the September/October international break, all to be held in Argentina. This series of matches will provide the platform for Messi's final goodbye to his supporters.
