Reports from Argentine outlet TYC Sports suggest two more Argentina Matches are planned for early June, potentially against Mexico in Las Vegas and Honduras in Miami β€” both on U.S. soil, one of the tournament hosts.

Spain, meanwhile, will also stay in Qatar for another festival fixture against Mohamed Salah’s Egypt, while Saudi Arabia and Serbia complete the six-team lineup.

As Messi and his teammates look ahead to their World Cup opener against Algeria on June 16, the Lusail showdowns and upcoming U.S. friendlies are shaping up as the final steps in Argentina’s title-defense journey.
