There was a local opinion poll result that Lionel Messi, who led Argentina to the Qatar World Cup victory, is likely to win if he runs for president.



As a result of a survey of 2,500 people by an Argentinian polling agency, 44% said they would vote for Messi in the next presidential election.



37.8% said they would not support, and 17.5% withheld the response.



Messi also ranked first in his approval rating in a survey together with politicians who are likely to run for the 2023 Argentine presidential election.



Messi's approval rating was 36.7%, more than three times higher than the runner-up Javier Millais.



Of course, it is highly unlikely that Messi will actually run for president.



Also, even if he actually runs, he can't guarantee that this high approval rating will come out.



However, it was the result of a survey that gave a glimpse of how Messi, who has risen to the ranks of the best players of all time with this World Cup victory, is being treated in Argentina.
