In an exclusive one-on-one interview with Fabrizio Romano, football icon Lionel Messi<\/a> pulled back the curtain on his mindset, his future with Inter Miami<\/a>, and his ambitions for what might be one last World Cup<\/a>. The conversation revealed a player who, even after winning everything, is still driven by a fundamental love for the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Fire Still Burns: “I Love to Win”<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When asked if he ever gets bored of the simple act of scoring, Messi’s answer was definitive and clear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“No, I love it,” he stated. “I love to win, I love to participate in the game and in goals and important things. And always when I enter the pitch, I try to help and be influential in the game.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This drive extends to his personal development. Even now, Messi believes he is a student of the game. “I think there is always something to learn; a person never stops learning, whether in football or in life,” he explained. “I try to get the maximum possible performance from my body and my game… to know your limits and try to make the most of them.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deconstructing the Magic<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Romano pressed Messi on his “magical” moves, specifically asking for the thought process behind an audacious chip. Messi’s explanation demystified the magic, revealing it as a combination of high-speed processing and instinct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“These are moments, decisions made at very high speed,” Messi said. “In that moment, I don’t remember if I saw or imagined that the defender would throw himself, because that’s the natural thing in those situations.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
