Tim Vickery Identifies Alejandro Garnacho as Messi's Potential Successor

Renowned South American football expert, Tim Vickery, has pinpointed Manchester United's Alejandro Garnacho as the player who could replace the legendary Lionel Messi in the Argentina national team. Vickery praised Garnacho's exceptional skills, describing him as a "line-breaker" capable of doing special things on the pitch.

Garnacho's Opportunity

With Messi currently recovering from an injury, Vickery sees this as a chance for Argentina to glimpse their future without the iconic player. In recent matches against Chile and Colombia, Argentina did reasonably well, but Vickery noted a lack of creativity in the final third, which Messi and Di Maria typically provide. This is where Garnacho comes in – as a potential game-changer who can dribble, break lines, and create something special.

A Big Season Ahead for Garnacho

Vickery believes that the upcoming season is crucial for Garnacho at Manchester United. He may not be a starter initially, but Vickery thinks Garnacho could make a significant impact off the bench, providing the spark Argentina needs in the final third. With his exceptional skills and potential, Garnacho could be the one to fill the void left by Messi in the Argentina national team.
