Laravel how to use a variable inside middleware function outside of it

Question

I am working with Laravel and in the controller I am using a middleware function inside constructor as following

  class BaseController extends Controller
   {
    //
        public function __construct(){        

    $this->middleware(function ($request, $next) {

        $selected_country_id = session()->get('browse_country_id')??4;
       
        return $next($request);
    });
    // end of middleware function

 //back to constructor function 
// How i can use selected_country_id here  for example 
dd($selected_country_id);
}
 }

my question is how to use the variable $selected_country_id outside the middleware function

@parth i want to use value inside constructor not another function — Mokhtar Ghaleb, Sep 18 '21 at 18:24
Ok, you can use sessions as is in your controller methods anyway, so you can skip trying through middleware. — nice_dev, Sep 18 '21 at 19:07

Flash it into the request with

$request->selected_country_id = $selected_country_id;
// or
$request->merge(["selected_country_id" => $selected_country_id]);
// or
$request->attributes->add(['selected_country_id' => $selected_country_id]);

And retrieve the value with

$request->selected_country_id;
