Argentina and Adidas unveil Messi’s farewell kit for Albiceleste

According to L'Équipe, Lionel Messi will say goodbye to the Argentine national team on 6 October against Benin. For that particularly meaningful match, Adidas has already unveiled a special kit.

The presentation is tied directly to the emotional context of the game: the shirt has been designed specifically for this farewell event. As L'Équipe notes, it’s a dedicated uniform for a day Argentina will mark for its captain.

So the Benin match won’t just carry sentimental weight because of Messi’s final appearance with the Albiceleste—it will also feature the pre-match reveal of Adidas’ commemorative jersey.
