Don't overthink it - he's stepping away from international duty because he's won basically everything there is to win with Argentina, including the World Cup in 2022, and he's getting older so he wants to go out on top rather than fade away! He'll definitely keep playing club soccer though, so this is just about hanging up the Argentina jersey, not retiring from the sport entirely.
