Lionel Messi's presence in Inter Miami's next game remains a mystery. The Argentine player has placed himself among the best of the moment and is a key piece of the club, but now, after his most recent physical discomfort, he has not managed to fully recover. For this reason, Inter Miami analyzes his presence for the next game, taking into account the feelings with the player.

 

Lionel Messi returned to the last training session with Inter Miami, but Gerardo Martino's assistant, the team's coach, confessed that Lionel Messi still has discomfort, therefore, the player will have to go little by little. Now, in a game where the club is practically staking its chances of being in the playoffs, it will be difficult for the club not to appreciate that Messi does not play, at least in a few minutes of the game.

Recently the Argentine coach was consulted about this issue and before the media he warned: "It was not prudent for him to play, it is clear. Not even to consider it for a few minutes, because we were taking risks." However, he made it clear: "He will surely play before he finishes the league," but the only way to handle it is to "define it game by game."

 

The Inter Miami coach's thoughts on Messi

"Tata" surprised by saying, with some concern on his face, that they did not deserve to win the US Open Cup, because at all times "the Houston Dynamo was better." Gastón Edul, a renowned Argentine journalist and very close to Leo, said on his Twitter account: "Inter Miami plays again next Saturday. It is difficult for him to start. They do not want to risk," referring to the star. However, the reality is that Lionel Messi wants to play a few minutes, and after training, we could see Messi play a moment in the game.
