Conmebol made an announcement that stirred football fans during the afternoon of last Friday, the 14th, and the most commented subject was the possibility of Messi playing in the Libertadores
A conmebol created great expectations around Lionel Messi and the next edition of America’s Liberators. That’s because the entity’s president made a publication full of mysteries and revealed that an important surprise will be announced next Monday, the 17th. According to Alejandro Domínguez, “the expectation” surrounding this announcement is great and even arouses anxiety in all.
Next Monday there will be great news for all football lovers, and we are already looking forward to it“, wrote the president of Conmebol on his social networks.

But that phrase by Alejandro Domínguez only gained a little more prominence, as Rádio Continental, from Argentina, guaranteed that the announcement will reveal the participation of Concacaf teams in the Libertadores. In this way, teams from both the MLS and the MLX could participate in the biggest competition in America. In addition, this decision could lead to Messi’s debut in the tournament with the most tradition in South American football.
No information has been confirmed by Conmebol and no other details have been revealed regarding the possibility of Concacaf teams participating in the Libertadores. Everything is still in a moment of uncertainty and nothing official has been confirmed by either entity. The tendency is for Alejandro Domínguez to announce this bombshell in South American football on Monday, the 17th.
It is worth noting that Concacaf and Conmebol have been close for some years and are looking for a slightly closer relationship. The idea is to strengthen football on the American continent, given the latest moves that UEFA has made in relation to the local sport. It is worth mentioning that the next Copa América will have the participation of teams from both entities and will have the United States of America as its stage.
Therefore, the next edition of the Libertadores will be able to count on interesting names from world football. With the MLS’s high investment in world-renowned stars, the possibility of Brazilian teams finding these rivals with some star players is great. The biggest expectation is around the team that Lionel Messim will play. It is important to highlight that it will be presented by Inter Miami this Sunday, the 16th.
