Aguero, who had to retire from football due to a cardiac arrhythmia, was Messi’s roommate during the Qatar World Cup where Argentina won its first World Cup trophy since 1986. Sharing the plan with Football Transfers, Rodriguez said, “Hopefully, it’ll be an unforgettable day. Messi’s invited, that’s for sure. We want him there, but he’ll decide as the game approaches. Leo, like everyone else you can imagine, will try to be there.”
Meanwhile, Newell’s Old Boys club had put up a banner of support for their country’s captain in their stadium following the attack against his wife Antonela Roccuzzo’s family business in March this year.
A threatening hand-written message to the PSG forward was left on a supermarket belonging to the Roccuzzos after two people on motorcycles shot the business.
The message of support from Newell’s was posted on social media hours before their home game against Barracas Central in the Argentine league.
