Change: "It was speculated that he failed to be signed into River Plate due to his ill health, however in a 2019 interview, Messi revealed that the club had offered to pay for his medical treatment despite ultimately rejecting him."
To: "It was speculated that he failed to sign with River Plate due to his ill health; however, in a 2019 interview, Messi revealed that River Plate had offered to pay for his medical treatment after he impressed at a trial by scoring four goals. River wanted to sign him, but Newell's Old Boys, who had refused to pay for his treatment, also refused to release his player card, preventing the transfer."
Reason: The current statement is incorrect. In the 2019 interview with Fox Sports Argentina, Messi clearly stated that River Plate wanted him, offered to pay for his treatment, and asked him to bring his player card to finalize the transfer. However, the transfer did not occur because Newell's Old Boys refused to release his player card, as they didn’t want to lose Messi to River Plate. While the article referenced (Reference #34) is correctly cited in the Wikipedia page, the information currently presented does not accurately reflect what is said in the article. This is discussed in the Sports Illustrated article (Reference #34): https://www.si.com/soccer/2019/06/02/leo-messi-revelo-el-motivo-por-el-que-no-ficho-por-river-plate.
