Due to injury, Lionel Messi has missed several Inter Miami matches in recent weeks. The attacking midfielder is still uncertain for this weekend’s meeting. And yet, the Argentinian is part of coach Lionel Scaloni’s list. Enough to raise new questions.
Inter Miami is rediscovering life without Lionel Messi. Author of a sparkling debut under his new colors, the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner has spent less time on the pitch in recent weeks. His trainer Gerardo Martino does not hesitate to take it easy. But above all, the Argentinian international is announced injured. Lionel Messi has missed five of Inter Miami’s last six matches. As a result, out of these five matches without the Pulga, the Major League Soccer franchise recorded only one victory.
Messi uncertain and summoned
A worrying result the day after the heavy defeat conceded against the Chicago Fire (4-1). Especially since Gerardo Martino does not know if Lionel Messi will be fit for the next match against Cincinnati on Sunday. “ I think he is close to a return to competitionestimated the Inter Miami coach. As we have already said, we will assess his condition with him to see if he is fit to play. The most important thing is that he puts this injury behind him and slowly gets back to his best form. We will see what suits best before the next match. »

Lionel Messi is therefore uncertain for the upcoming meeting. Which doesn’t seem to worry Lionel Scaloni. Indeed, the Argentina coach has summoned his captain to face Paraguay and Peru in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Enough to raise new questions. Would the former Blaugrana be more involved with his selection? The criticism had already appeared when he played at Paris Saint-Germain. In any case, his absences disappoint MLS supporters, ready to pay dearly for their ticket to finally see Lionel Messi withdraw.
