Former Chelsea and Manchester United midfielder, Juan Sebastian Veron, has said that Argentina must stop relying heavily upon Lionel Messi and develop the rest of the squad.
Veron also backed Tottenham Hotspur coach, Mauricio Pochettino to take over as coach.
Messi is yet to discuss his international future after competing in his fourth World Cup, in which Argentina were knocked out in the round of 16 by eventual winners, France.
But Veron feels it is time to say goodbye to the Barcelona superstar.
“It’s time to build a group,” Veron, the former Argentina international, told ESPN Argentina.
“Obviously, if Leo is eager [to be part of the national team], they would need to involve him little by little.
“I think we have to prepare the base and once and for all think about a team and not think about someone who can save us. Even more at this time, watching other national teams and how they faced the World Cup, it seems essential to think about a group.”
