Argentina
While it seems an easy option to consider Argentina as the country that could very well give us Lionel Messi’s successor, it also seems highly possible given the kind of youngsters coming through the ranks from the South American giant.
Paulo Dybala and Maximiliano Romero are just two of the hundreds of names that could very well go on to replace their country’s captain and talisman in the future. And they’re just the trailer for what’s to come. Argentina is one of the most scouted countries in football.
They produce world-class footballers on a yearly basis and have been hitting the sweet spot for a while now with so many youngsters getting the chance to play for the senior side. While some are just out-and-out finished products, the renegades – as is Messi – are beginning to climb through the cracks.
The answer to FC Barcelona’s future is very likely the same place they found their greatest ever player.
