Lionel Messi is back with Argentina, and he was handed yet one more responsibility with La Albiceleste.
In what some could hint to be a passing of the torch between himself and Paulo Dyabala, German kit manufacturer Adidas had both footballers unveiling the new kit Argentina's National Team will be wearing in their upcoming friendlies and in the 2019 Copa América.
The design, which keeps the usual light blue and white stripes, comes with a new collar in dark blue. The shirt's sleeves also give the jersey a proper finish in a similar tone.
Here's the video posted by the Argentine National Team to unveil their new threads, starring Dybala.
"We have the players, we have the team, we have a new kit. Come on, Argentina!"

Then, Messi made his way into La Albiceleste's Twitter feed to unveil the new threads.

Messi's return to the Argentine team is the highlight of the international break, although coach Lionel Scaloni has stated that "La Pulga" will only be around for the first game, against Venezuela.
