Recall that the tournament will commence on June 20 to July 14, 2024.
However, in a chat with ESPN Brasil, the Inter Miami star stated that Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador and Uruguay are other strong contenders that can win the trophy.

“I think that Argentina is always the favourite,” Messi said.
“When a tournament starts, be it a World Cup, Copa América or whatever, Argentina is a candidate just like Brazil and more so in this Copa América.
“But I think that today the South American teams are very strong.
“Uruguay is very good, as is Colombia and Ecuador. Afterwards it becomes very difficult to play all the games, but I think it will be a very levelled Copa América.”
