Eto'o also asked his former teammate about Lionel Messi, whose contract at Barcelona expires next summer.
"He's still got five or seven very good years left in him," Xavi said about the Argentine.
"He takes good care of himself and he can keep playing until he's 37, 38 or 39.
"He'll play at the Qatar World Cup, I'm sure."

Greatest Of All Time. I hope Messi will play until he is 45 years BUT Already Messi Has Broken G.O.A.T Barrier.

I'm certain that Messi will win the 2022 WC. And if he does, cr7 will be just another good footballer. If Leo wins that WC the GOAT debate will officially be done and dusted.🤣🤣🤣can't wait.

Messi is a goat 🐐... and tbh I am tired of saying that ... Debates and rumours go on that Messi doesn’t play as well in WC or Argentina 🇦🇷 as he does for Barcelona ... and we can’t say with no proof ! Cristiano Ronaldo & Lionel Messi Are different in their own areas .. it’s not to good to compare them ! ... yes Pele I’m talking to you 😂✅😂
