Published reports suggest that the commercial appeal of Argentina's national team friendly games without Lionel Messi's presence may decrease.

According to ambassador Arjan; According to reports published by China, Saudi Arabia and India have shown no desire to hold a friendly match against Argentina in the FIFA national tournament window in November. It is said that the decrease in the commercial appeal of the matches in the absence of Messi is one of the possible factors of this situation; However, the details of these negotiations and the reasons for the decision of the Asian parties have not been independently confirmed.

According to the reported report, in the past years, the Argentine Football Federation has wanted a significant share of ticket sales and commercial rights for holding friendly matches abroad. These conditions may be less attractive for the organizers in the absence of stars like Messi.

Messi's presence in recent years has been one of the important factors in the attention of fans and commercial markets to Argentina's matches. However, the extent of his absence's impact on the federation's revenues and organizers' decision requires more detailed information about contracts and negotiations.

If these reports are confirmed, Argentina's football federation may be forced to review its commercial terms in order to maintain revenues from friendly matches. However, for the time being, we cannot talk about the definite end of the cooperation of the Asian organizers with Argentina or the official reduction of the income of this federation.
