CNN —Age, they say, is just a number – an adage that appears to ring true for soccer star Lionel Messi.
“The truth is I haven’t thought about it yet,” said Messi, who turns 37 in June.
“Today, I try to enjoy it day-by-day, enjoy every moment without thinking about it more than that.
Messi celebrates winning the World Cup with Argentina in 2022.
Asked about what will factor into his decision to retire, Messi said: “The moment that I’m not at the level to deliver, that I’m not enjoying it, that I’m not helping my teammates.
