Do you think a player like messi should be doubtful about getting opportunity in any national team? Ronaldo should choose England right? These 2 players are legends since they provided as much glory as possible to their national teams despite all odds.

Jamal Musiala hasn’t betrayed anyone, how is it the “ultimate betrayal” to play for the country of your birth? Haaland also hasn’t betrayed anyone, he had the choice of the country of his birth or the country of his nationality (by virtue of his parents both being Norwegian) and chose the latter; so far they are the only two I’ve seen you talk about in the video but there was a photo of Messi in a Spain shirt… Messi has clearly not betrayed anyone, he was born & raised in Argentina to Argentinian parents he is Argentinian not Spanish. I hope you mention Di Stefano, Rice & Grealish to name but 3
Regarding Haaland's excuse for not change from Norway to England, well he is factually correct. But I'm pretty sure Haaland know a little about norwegian culture and mindset.. If he chose England, he would be the most hated man in Norway. He would be the new quisling. For those who don't know, check out that term. Let me give you fine folks a crash course in norwegian mentality: The greatest norwegian biathlete was getting old, so Norway would'n pick him for upcoming winter. But because he was married to an Belarus' biathlete. So Belarus gave him a offer. But a close friend of him told him if you choose Belarus, you're going to be most hated man in Norway
First Up, please pin this comment Now Let's dive in Lionel Messi chose to play for Argentina over Spain because he was born in Argentina and considered it his home country, despite living and playing most of his club career in Spain with Barcelona; he always wanted to represent the nation of his birth, even though the Spanish Football Federation tried to convince him to play for them. Key points about Messi's decision: Nationality: Messi was born in Rosario, Argentina, making Argentina his natural national team choice. Early decision: Messi decided to play for Argentina early in his career, even when the Spanish FA attempted to recruit him. Family ties: Messi's family background also influenced his decision to represent Argentina. The day Messi chose Argentina over Spain - BeSoccer Patrick Power 7 years ago 8.3k | Reading time: 1 minute. A decisive day in Messi's career.
You forgot to mention Diego Maradona his maternal grandmother (Salvadora Kariolic) is from croatian origin Also Cristiano Ronaldo had a great grand mother (Isabel da Piedade) came from Cape Verde
As a Ghanaian I can confirm there hasn’t been any war in the country since independence which was 67 years ago and it has remained one of the most peaceful countries in the world since then, a lot of Liberians came to Ghana during the civil war and most are still here and have been able to live in peace so I can boldly say what he said about Ghana was a lie
Bro the guy said Canada saved him instead of the country(Ghana) that gave his parents peace when they were chanced out from their own country (Liberia). Most Africans tell these lies to seek Asylum .
Perfect! Perfect. We have a lot of better players than them (the traitors, who you mentioned). And they are not called up, due to an excess of good players and also the politics of interests in Brazilian football. Pepe's case. This one never did and there is no need for it here. A violent, truculent player with very limited technique.
Messi no traicino a nadie, nacio en Argentina, tiene padres argentinos, y vivio toda su infancia en Argentina. Que vendehumeada ponerlo aca para tener mas interacciones.
Reporter why did you choice the Argentinian national team over Spain? Messi: cause I am Argentinian messi: if I’m not able to play in argentina national team I couldn’t play for other country.
your pronunciations kill me in portuguese so i shall help Maritimo was fine but you said funchal wrongly instead of funkal, its mostly pronounced as funshal seleção is pronounced to english speakers something along the lines of selesaum
If Messi had chosen Spain, Messi would have been called the GOAT before Ronaldo. Spain won 4 Euros, and they won 2 World Cups. so if Messi had chosen Spain, Messi would have already beaten Ronaldo's Euro record. Also, he would have a lot more world cups than Ronaldo even though Messi has more right now
Your bias is incredible. You seem to think that every player should have chosen to play for England, a team that hasn't won anything since 1966. Most of the players you list ended up playing for their country of birth or the one where they spend childhood, which is when you make emotional connections.
I like your content but 2day I'm so disappointed in you, how can you say they betrayed, some of them chose their origin so how is it betrayal, can you imagine calling Messi a traitor because he remained with Argentina wjich is his origin, birth place and his ancestors a traitor, I know you're doing it yo attract views but this is too far, you can use a title like "players that could have played for other nationalities that you didn't know" at least, because with these kind of title you put you can loose subscribers and viewers like me and many others, better take note plz.

Argentines are pretty much born with lots of patriotism, is very difficult to find one who isn't even slightly proud of the country.
