The former Liverpool ad West Ham midfielder stated that: "My destiny has to be to play at a place where I feel important, the reality is that I am no longer as important at barcelona as I once was. I do not know what will happen in the future but I will leave the day when I feel that I am a problem for the club. What I fear the most is that I have had five muscle problems in the past 12 months."
Mascherano was then asked about his career with the Argentinian national team stating that: "My story with the national team ends after Russia. There was a real possibility to miss the World Cup, the last period here has been crazy. The critical voices about Messi? The national team is not just Messi, it is everyone."
