David Trezeguet considers Argentina to be the world champion

The former striker won the World Cup with France in 1998 after the final against Brazil.

“Personally, it is difficult and emotional for me. Something I didn’t want, but it should be a great ending. This is what we all expected, because of the history they are the two best teams in Qatar,” the Frenchman said, according to Marca.

He claims that whatever happens on Sunday will make him both happy and sad at the same time.

“Messi makes people dream, but that doesn’t diminish France’s ambitions at all. Take heart knowing this is Leo’s last World Cup, he deserves to win it. He is at the end of his career, and Mbappe has just started and manages to break all the records,” says the ex-player of the Turin “Juventus”.
