Barcelona striker Luis Suarez thinks club-mate Lionel Messi will reconsider his decision to quit international football.

Messi, 29, retired from Argentina duty after missing a penalty in the Copa America final shootout defeat by Chile.

He has never won a major international trophy, losing four finals (one World Cup and three Copas).

Suarez, who plays for Argentina's rivals Uruguay, said: “As a friend and an admirer of football I’d like to see him stay with Argentina’s national team.

"His love for country is not up for discussion, but you also have to understand him after losing the final. I think he’ll reconsider.”
