Messi’s gesture demonstrates his compromise with the Argentina National Team ahead of Copa America

Lionel Messi is now fully focused on Copa America this summer as the Argentina national team starts training in preparation for the tournament. Messi showed leadership and commitment in the camp with the Argentina national team due to him staying with the team at the hotel, Le Meridien, in Miami instead of staying at home. The Argentina national team traveled to Miami to start their training and preparations for the friendly matches before Copa America. Messi has lived in Miami since last summer, when he made the move to Inter Miami in the MLS. There is an AFA building in Miami as well, which makes it easier for Messi to discuss issues or concerns with the Football Federation of Argentina. Messi already took part in team training with the Argentina national team, and they await for the first friendly against Ecuador on Sunday at Soldier Field in Chicago.

Messi and the rest of the Argentina team were training at Inter Miami’s facilities. Co-owner David Beckham allowed the team to train there despite Messi missing out on more than four MLS games with Inter Miami these next few weeks. The Argentine star just played for Inter Miami this past weekend in a 3-3 draw against St. Louis City at the Chase Stadium. Messi scored in the first half, but he couldn’t help the team secure a win before he left to join his national team.

Players who have joined the Argentina camp include Nicolas Tagliafico, Lautaro Martinez, Julian Alvarez, and Alexis Mac Allister. The remaining players who arrived for the national team were Angel Di Maria and Nicolas Otamendi, with the last player left to be goalkeeper Franco Armani, who will arrive today.
